Accidental Conflict: America, China, and the Clash of False Narratives

In his timely new book Accidental Conflict: America, China, and the Clash of False Narratives, Stephen Roach, Senior Fellow at the Paul Tsai China Center of the Yale Law School and former Chairman of Morgan Stanley Asia, offers a hard-hitting analysis of both nations’ economies, politics, and policies. He argues that much of the contentious rhetoric on both sides is dangerously misguided, amplified by information distortion, and more a reflection of each nation’s fears and vulnerabilities than a credible assessment of the risks they face. Outlining the disastrous toll of conflict escalation between China and America, Roach offers a new road map to restoring a mutually advantageous relationship. Accidental Conflict was recently selected by the Financial Times as one of the best books (in economics) of 2022.
