The United States faces a new era of great power competition as a rising People’s Republic of China (PRC) and revisionist Russia challenge key aspects of the post–Cold War international security and economic landscape. This will require a prioritization of sectors where the United States either can offer a better approach or has a clear comparative advantage over what the PRC offers. In contrast to the PRC, the United States offers a compelling development model that is built on a transformational rather than transactional approach.History shows that good development policy must be at the core of U.S. The United States has long relied on foreign assistance to effect geopolitical outcomes in confronting the PRC, it should draw on past lessons.
Competition with the PRC will rely far more on economic tools, especially development finance (including foreign aid), trade and investment, and digital technologies. The PRC presents a unique challenge given its expansive military, economic, and development power. The United States finds itself in a period of renewed great power competition with a rising People’s Republic of China (PRC) and a revisionist Russia.
