A Bull Named Trump in a Shop Called China

With US President-elect Donald Trump’s help, the “Chinese Century” may arrive sooner than anyone expected. By openly engaging with Taiwan, pointlessly pillorying China, and dismantling the Trans-Pacific Partnership, Trump is simultaneously provoking and empowering Asia's rising hegemon.

CAMBRIDGE – Some of US President-elect Donald Trump’s nastiest attacks have been directed at China.

Why, then, are many Chinese policy advisers and commentators sanguine about future US-China relations?
