The Rebalance of Power among China, India & Japan October 14, 2008

Bill Emmott, Former Editor, The Economist

The rising economic and political power of Asia is one of the biggest stories of our time. But it is often misunderstood, either as a story of West versus East or simply the rise of China and its challenge to America. Bill Emmott’s new book, Rivals: How the Power Struggle Between China, India and Japan will Shape our Next Decade, questions those views. Mr. Emmott, whose tenure at The Economist spanned 13 years, joins the Council to discuss the rivalry between these three great Asian powers and the economic and social changes that China, India and Japan are all destined to experience during the next decade.
