What is really helpful is when people actually impose constraints on their thinking. It’s counter-intuitive but creativity loves ...

First, American dominance was due to an unusual confluence of forces unlikely to be repeated. Second, China has weaknesses—and we have strengths—that aren’t immediately ...
