On this edition of ST, we welcome back to the show Prof. David Shambaugh of George Washington University. He recently gave an address at the Tulsa Committee on Foreign Relations (or TCFR) titled "Where Great Powers Meet: America and China in Southeast Asia." An internationally recognized authority and award-winning author on contemporary China and the global relations of Asia, Shambaugh has visited or lived in China every year since 1979 and has traveled extensively throughout Asia, Europe, and Latin America. The title of his talk at the TCFR is also the name of his recent book from Oxford University Press. (He's written more than 30 books overall, and another volume that he'll publish this year is titled "China's Leaders from Mao to Xi.")
