Tech Cold War: The Geopolitics of Technology

TikTok, Huawei, semiconductors, AI … Technology has become a field of fierce geopolitical competition, especially between the United States and China. What drives this particular rivalry, and how are these two tech superpowers trying to curb each other’s innovation systems? What roles do private companies play?

As they delve into the complex dynamics of the US-China battle for technological supremacy, Ansgar Baums and Nicholas Butts unpack the two states’ diverging approaches to developing technology infrastructure. Not least, they also highlight the deleterious consequences of this tech cold war on the global economy.
