I suffer from at least some of the same parochialism,but my perspective is from a country whose imperialist heyday is definitively in the past,although of course it still quite happy to play an enthusiastic second fiddle in other people’s adventures.The character of the economic debate in the UK,particularly with regard to China’s competitive edge in many export industries,is quite different from that in the USA:there is much less talk of protectionism,for example.In addition,like every other British intellectual,even in the heyday of Empire,and whether an expert on foreign policy or not,I grew up on the concept of the `balance of power.’ True,it was the balance of power in Europe that I learnt about in history (first building alliances with German-speaking states to contain France,then building alliances with France to contain a newly-united and powerful Germany),and it was the precarious balance of power between the Free World and World Communism that dominated my adult life up until 1991,but that idea of balance was always central to the way in which we were taught to think about the world.Perhaps,for a decade after 1991,that old tool was no longer appropriate,but from this sort of intellectual background,the contemporary rise of China is more easily,and better,understood as a process that is recasting the global balance of power rather than as a threat to an existing hegemonic order.
