CFP: Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies: “The American Century & Its Challenges: U.S., Russia, P.R. China”

Deadline: January 15, 2023

https://www.jis3.org/callforpapers2023
Suggested Themes:
It is by now legendary that the 20th century was “the American Century.”
But, did the West celebrate prematurely the implosion of the Soviet
empire? Apart from the “Havana Syndrome,” Putin’s Russia, and its war
in Ukraine, remains a major geopolitical rival, with its hackers holding
U.S. companies hostage for ransom. Among communist one-party
states–People’s Republic of China, N. Korea, Vietnam, Laos, and
Cuba–“China” poses the greatest challenge. China’s hackers steal U.S.
civilian and military tech secrets, while its trade and investment
policies, 5G broadband, quantum communications, and Artificial
Intelligence aim to create dependent “vassal” states, undermining
democracies abroad, and suppressing dissent at home (laogai–the Chinese
Gulag).
