show moreGordon Chang has appeared before the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission among others. He has warned that Chinese students attending U.S. colleges and universities have become the long arm of Chinese totalitarianism, that students, professors, and scientists have become “nontraditional collectors” of intelligence for China, and has stated that China's influence on activities on American campuses have infringed on academic freedom, violated sovereignty, and have violated U.S. laws. Further, Chang has claimed that China is not trying to compete with the United States within the Westphalian order, but to overthrow that order altogether.
U.S.-China “cold tech war”
In his book, The Great U.S.-China Tech War (2020), Chang submits that China and the United States are involved in a what he terms as a “cold tech war,” with the winner being able to dominate the twenty-first century. He notes that a decade ago China was not considered a tech contender, but Chinese leaders have made their regime a tech powerhouse, with some now finding China to be a leader with America behind in critical areas. Chang advocates mobilization for the U.S. to regain what it once had in control of cutting-edge technologies.
Collapse of China
As the author of The Coming Collapse of China, since 2001 Chang has repeatedly said that the Chinese government would eventually collapse. Chang also says that China is a "new dot-com bubble", adding that the rapid growth by China is not supported by various internal factors such as decrease in population growth as well as slowing retail sales. In a separate interview, he remarked that China achieved its 149.2 percent of its current trade surplus with the United States through "lying, cheating, and stealing" and that if China decided to realize its threat that had been expressed since August 2007 to sell its US Treasuries, it would actually hurt its own economy which is reliant on exports to the United States; the economy of the United States would be hurt by a sell-off of Treasuries, causing the United States to buy less from China, which would in turn hurt the Chinese economy.
Since 2001, Chang has made predictions that the Chinese government will eventually collapse. Shen Dingli, director of the Center for American Studies at Fudan University, wrote that Chang's predictions "collapse his own credibility."[citation needed] John Tamny of RealClearMarkets has criticized Chang's predictions and analyses about China, stating that Chang possesses "limited knowledge of simple economics" and that "Chang’s feel for China has been impressively incorrect for close to twenty years, and if his latest commentary is at all indicative of his grasp of what authors economic growth, Chang’s batting average on the matter of China isn’t about to improve."
