BOOK DESCRIPTION U.S.-China Rivalry: From Trade Wars to Tech Cold War Escalating Tariffs, AI Export Controls, and the Battle for Global Supremacy The world stands at a critical inflection point. The U.S.-China relationship-the most consequential bilateral dynamic of the 21st century-has evolved from economic partnership to strategic competition that threatens to reshape the entire global order. This comprehensive and meticulously researched work by Dr. Naim Tahir Baig provides readers with an authoritative guide to understanding this defining rivalry and its profound implications for every nation, industry, and individual on the planet. U.S.-China Rivalry: From Trade Wars to Tech Cold War traces the arc of this competition from its origins in trade disputes to its current manifestation as a comprehensive struggle for technological, economic, and geopolitical supremacy. Drawing on the latest developments through late 2025-including tariff escalations that reached 145% on Chinese goods, China's November 2025 ban on foreign AI chips in state-funded data centers, and the landmark October 2025 U.S.-Australia Critical Minerals Framework-Dr. Baig presents a narrative that is both deeply informed by historical precedent and urgently relevant to current events. The book systematically examines multiple dimensions of the rivalry. It explores how average U.S. tariff rates on Chinese goods increased to 39.2% by August 2025, fundamentally disrupting decades of economic integration. It analyzes the semiconductor ""chip war,"" where export controls have emerged as 21st-century statecraft, with the paradoxical result that restrictions may be accelerating Chinese innovation rather than containing it. The work documents how China ordered all state-funded data centers to stop using or purchasing foreign AI chips on November 5, 2025, signaling Beijing's confidence in achieving technological independence. Dr. Baig provides critical analysis of the resource dimension of this competition, examining China's dominance of critical minerals supply chains-controlling 60% of rare earth production and near-monopoly on processing-and how Beijing has weaponized this advantage through export controls on gallium, germanium, antimony, and rare earth elements. The book details the Western response, including the historic U.S.-Australia agreement committing $8.5 billion to alternative supply chains, while honestly assessing the timeline and scale challenges these initiatives face. This book matters because the U.S.-China relationship will define the 21st century. Whether you are a policymaker crafting strategy, a business leader navigating supply chain decisions, an investor assessing geopolitical risk, a student of international relations, or simply an informed citizen seeking to understand the forces reshaping our world, U.S.-China Rivalry: From Trade Wars to Tech Cold War provides the comprehensive, accessible, and rigorously researched analysis essential for making sense of our era's defining challenge. In an age of information overload and polarized discourse, Dr. Naim Tahir Baig offers something increasingly rare: a thoroughly researched, balanced, and intellectually honest assessment of the most important geopolitical competition of our time. This is essential reading for anyone who seeks to understand not just what is happening between the United States and China, but why it matters and what it means for all of us.
