Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Dennis Unkovic asserts that China is, contrary to popular belief,notpoised to take over from the United States as the world's pre-eminent superpower.Chinese President Xi Jinping believes his country is destined to displace the United States as the world's top military and economic power. Every policy that Xi has put forth since assuming power in 2013 has been carefully crafted with this end goal in mind.Nearly four decades of meteoric economic growth have convinced many in the West that modern China is indeed an invincible regime, and that Xi's grand plan will come to fruition. Closer examination reveals that China is not invulnerable, but in fact is far more fragile than it outwardly appears.In this book, Dennis Unkovic coins the term MaxTrends to identify critical factors and developments that have the potential to derail Xi's aggressive ambitions for China. These MaxTrends include alarming demographic shifts, cracks in the global supply chain, an accelerating global arms race, and the Taiwan conundrum, all of which indicate that China's strength may be more illusion than reality. Unkovic warns that the world's democracies must take increasingly aggressive steps to exploit China's vulnerabilities if they hope to blunt Xi's ambitions.Right now China and the United States find themselves competing in a tight race to the top. In today's unprecedented arena of economic, military, and political challenges, the nation that acts more quickly and prudently will win.

Paperback. Condition: New. Watch the author describe his take on critical supply chain threats in his most current NBC/WPXI-Pittsburgh interview.The global supply chain is broken. Because COVID-19 brought this issue to the forefront, many assume that the pandemic is the reason for the collapse. It is not. Instead, four MaxTrendsT are largely responsible for the transformations already underway. Transforming the Global Supply Chain describes these MaxTrendsT in detail--the growing presence of cyber threats, the revolutionary impact of 3-D printing, the rapid adoption of robotics, and the new ways nations everywhere are seeking to protect their domestic economies from foreign competitors.For many reasons, the biggest casualty over the next five years will be China. Some companies are already beginning the process of moving their supply chains out of China to other locations in Southeast Asia, India, and the Americas. Those U.S. companies that are aggressively reacting to economic and political pressures by reshoring their supply chains back to America are poised to be the most successful over the long run.
