Sing, L: Conservatism and the Kissinger-Mao Axis

Lai Sing Lam is an independent scholar.

This book examines the balance-of-power initiative Kissinger inherited, which harmonized with Mao's "three worlds" concept and led to the Kissinger-Mao axis in the new US-Chinese-Soviet global order. The US-Japan containment, NATO's expansion, and Russia's rise from the ashes led to the Sino-Russian-Central Asian collusion via the West.
