David Kilcullen Biden's America and Great Power Conflict
In The Dragons and The Snakes: How the Rest Learned to Fight the West, the eminent soldier-scholar David Kilcullen offers a wide-ranging analysis of the global security environment since 1993 and asks what opponents of the West have learned during the last quarter-century of conflict. The Dragons he refers to are nation-states such as China and Russia; the Snakes are guerrilla and terrorist organisations.
Western dominance over a very particular, narrowly-defined form of warfare since the Cold War has forced adversaries to adapt in ways that present serious new challenges to America and its allies, and state and non-state threats now increasingly overlap and intersect.
For President Joe Biden, the post-Trump era is fraught with challenges, ranging from increasing great power rivalry, economic uncertainty, insecure allies and domestic challenges – nowhere is this more evident than in Australia’s own region. While the nation's geographic isolation has provided Australia with a degree of protection from the major conflagrations of the 20th century, the 21st century's great power rivalry impacts closer to home.
We are consistently told that as a nation we are torn between our economic relationship with China and the longstanding strategic partnership with the US, placing the country at the epicentre of a great power rivalry – but does it have to be that way?
AIIA Victoria invites you to join Richard Iron in conversation with David Kilcullen.
