The Decisive Decade with Jonathan Ward

Vandenberg is joined by author & policy analyst Jonathan D.T. Ward to discuss his new book, The Decisive Decade: American Grand Strategy to Triumph Over China.

With a focus on the economic battlefront and in-depth analysis of the diplomatic, military, and ideological arenas, one of the foremost experts on US-China competition offers a rousing, strategic call to action and playbook—harvesting all of our nation’s ingenuity, confidence, and will power—to outcompete the longterm strategies of China’s Communist Party.

Jonathan Ward has been studying Russia, China, and India for nearly twenty years since his undergraduate days in Russian and Chinese language at Columbia University. Dr. Ward is the author of China’s Vision of Victory, a guide to the global grand strategy of the Chinese government which has been widely read in US government and national security circles, as well as by audiences in business and finance. He earned his PhD at the University of Oxford where he specialized in China-India relations, after initially being admitted to Oxford for a doctorate in Russia-China relations during the Cold War.
