China’s Rise to Dominance: Preparing for Confrontation with the United States, by Dr. Derek Levine, describes China's strategy under Xi Jinping to reclaim its status as the dominant global power, positioning the United States as a declining adversary. Xi Jinping aims to restore China's position by preparing for a confrontation with the United States, which is the main obstacle to China's national interests.

The Chinese government highlights how the United States mishandled events like the 2008 Financial Crisis, COVID-19, and the January 6th insurrection to promote the superiority of the Chinese model. Domestically, Xi Jinping has implemented measures such as creating a mass surveillance state, removing term limits, and purging party members to consolidate power and prepare for a potential crisis with the United States.

With China's economy expected to grow by only 4 percent, Xi Jinping may adopt a more assertive foreign policy towards the US to boost China's international stature and legitimize his rule. The book also discusses China's expected move to reunify with Taiwan by 2027, likely leading to a confrontation with the US. The book aims to examine how China views the US as a threat to justify Xi Jinping's rule and offer policy recommendations for dealing with a more assertive China. These policy recommendations are not just suggestions but a call to action for scholars, policymakers, and individuals interested in international relations and geopolitics.
