Competition between both superpowers • dominance of global supremacy • competition and rivalry • China´s supremacy starts, as for America it´s pretty much the opposite • China= Americas biggest supplier • “High tech vs. recycled paper“ • no more trade imbalance • Japan´s process in automobile manufacture better than "Made in USA"
instead of China as the "stragetic partner" it became "strategic competitor" • China profits by America´s decline • rivalry between Beijing & Washington • China´s armament grows rapidly
