China is the most consequential challenge to the transatlantic community, a rising power whose ambitions span technology, trade, security, and the rules of the international order. Understanding Beijing means grasping the reach of the Chinese Communist Party and the trajectory of the US-China technology competition. This hub follows the full range of that challenge: the technology and semiconductor contest, China economic statecraft from critical minerals to the cross-border payment system, deepening alignment with Russia, and the stakes over China and Taiwan. Fellows and analysts assess Chinese economic statecraft, the risks in the Taiwan Strait, and how democracies can protect critical capabilities and coordinate across the Atlantic. Explore expert analysis and commentary on Beijing’s rise, the Chinese Communist Party, and the technology competition shaping global power.
