Abstract

Today I turn 51, and “come of age” at 21, that is, 21 years in the UK. So, rather than offer an immediate take on the G7 summit just wrapped up, I thought I would take a broader view on “the West” and the re-emergence of China, and its nascent challenge for global hegemony (noting of course that next year will mark 100 years since the publication of Oswald Spengler’s complete (second) volume of Der Untergang des Abendlandes, more popularly known in English as The Decline of the West).
