Description
How does attracting global talent strengthen American soft power? Graham Allison examines the role of immigration, openness, and opportunity in U.S.-China competition, particularly in artificial intelligence and advanced technology.
From scientific leadership to Silicon Valley, Allison argues that America’s ability to welcome talented people and help them realize their ambitions has been a major national advantage. He contrasts the appeal of an open society with the challenges China faces in attracting and integrating talent from around the world.
