U.S. President Andrew Jackson and King Cheng of the Chinese Zhou dynasty

Just as President Donald Trump has reached back into U.S. history to draw
inspiration for his “America First” policy from President Andrew Jackson’s
mid-19th century populism, so too is Chinese President Xi Jinping reaching
back to the Zhou dynasty 3,000 years ago — which lasted longer than the
entire existence of the U.S. — for inspiration. Xi’s idea of a “new era” of
global relations based on a “community of common destiny” is drawn from the
concept of tianxia — or “all under heaven,” living in harmonious
coexistence — that reigned during that ancient era.

Jacksonian-style “America First” policies have never been attempted in our
age of interdependence that was largely created by liberal internationalist
policies of the U.S. during the 20th century. Nor has the Chinese concept
of tianxia ever been tried on a world scale among highly distinct
civilizations and political systems tightly tethered by globalization.

In The WorldPost this week, we examine the conjunction of these two
opposite historical resonances coming together at the same time. And we
check the claims of harmonious cooperation along China’s new Silk Road —
spanning from Eurasia to Africa — to test how the aspiration of a common
destiny is playing out in reality.

Prominent Chinese philosopher Zhao Tingyang
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tO_c64hSUcfMSuD57OalS8hSFB5mp2dBe3syCyRoqCmDuJiDn4LazMghE0eSDa06Lo911GSy-my5_cW1POyx_LTutu-ompWTuWBNKxUGUnmu5yTbqNsQurYkttgJYJPZEp4r_5snotRWl_eEVUHbw6QDjuobhCGmJck1pihSShjNWe2xgG7jiulwIIzoKwE0I5rrxMuzaAkcLMxZrLYgLOcoDkJSeJztB1-KZBKc1Dj-gNL23WnXQvho9TkgrPhCE52CNYFPHP8=&c=Ciy8tC35ZqxzT8y4a6pavgs-ioxgqphTiX85sTxj5CWolrj7Z_szAw==&ch=18jIClciWHl8lfajytzioP7UCyhmGZktga3eDTikHjYIqOZSZ79hqA==>
outlines
the history and logic of the tianxia system in ancient China. The Zhou
dynasty “sought to bring the whole world together under one tent as a way
to eliminate any negative external influence, and thereby conflict, within
what was then considered the civilized world,” he writes from Beijing.
Tianxia “defines the concept of ‘the political’ as the art of co-existing
through transforming hostility into hospitality — a clear alternative to
the more modern concepts of German legal theorist Carl Schmitt’s
recognition of politics as ‘us vs. them,’ Hans Morgenthau’s ‘realist’
struggle for power and Samuel Huntington’s ‘clash of civilizations.’”

The philosophical basis of the tianxia concept, Zhao explains, is the
Confucian notion of “live and let live” that seeks to minimize conflict
instead of maximize self-interest. For Zhao, such a mode of coexistence is
the most rational formula for peace and stability in today’s diverse world.
“A ‘tianxia peace’ for our hyper-connected, interdependent world … would
have to be built on the broader foundation of a compatible universalism
that includes all civilizations — not an exclusive unilateral claim of one
civilization to universality.”

In a more contemporary context, one of China’s leading strategists, Yan
Xuetong
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tO_c64hSUcfMSuD57OalS8hSFB5mp2dBe3syCyRoqCmDuJiDn4LazMghE0eSDa06hdJUNSgSUCWXxU1tAEOtnFgmQ0o4uNQtyiSzcIeDThyRfXYDPovvCp3TKZ059qnBljzVrT-5mUT_fEhlYBYIGO0Ygc-ODnd6iui1l-Sf3QI60TTaPoSNh7kRbkb-8_-cz5vlhIe5L0QHgwA4XhFfjKhle4Mz2b9cVzohoGS8vSkzgXP_ByQYQH49oeAHlX-pPY3Lai9f_fY=&c=Ciy8tC35ZqxzT8y4a6pavgs-ioxgqphTiX85sTxj5CWolrj7Z_szAw==&ch=18jIClciWHl8lfajytzioP7UCyhmGZktga3eDTikHjYIqOZSZ79hqA==>,
addresses anxiety that the U.S. and China are headed into a new Cold War.
He believes that kind of frozen relationship can be avoided because, under
Trump, the U.S. is stepping back from global leadership while China is not
yet stepping up, and neither the U.S. nor China are engaging in ideological
competition or waging proxy wars like those of the Soviet era.

“To be sure, China-U.S. competition will inevitably grow more severe in
2018,” Yan writes from Beijing. “At the moment, China appears to have more
confidence than the U.S. in this competition because it believes the Trump
administration suffers from a crippling lack of credibility both at home
and abroad. The most crucial factor in international competition between
superpowers is strategic credibility.”

He concludes that the Trump administration has “undermined its capacity to
shape international opinions and regain strategic credibility. If that is
the case, how can it initiate a new Cold War even if it wants to?”

The ability of the U.S. to shape the strategic landscape going forward is
further impacted by the tightening, if unbalanced, links between Russia and
China. Writing from Vladivostok, Artyom Lukin
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tO_c64hSUcfMSuD57OalS8hSFB5mp2dBe3syCyRoqCmDuJiDn4LazMghE0eSDa06ZVOaPRz-IV4dfh5_sSd8wnua_1vt84gTUi9EZtyqfRmFRdfmkQDdHOHVROzptDCieJVZmUKGhj2MK8J-uhzcoUW5VSHLV4y4y1jCZuIZ44nAWnDCtWBFgPM3zXSB8vQw70TvTy6dsDFh-FPOjZyLCO6ENeq0Zs7VVkFjvFkVPqI=&c=Ciy8tC35ZqxzT8y4a6pavgs-ioxgqphTiX85sTxj5CWolrj7Z_szAw==&ch=18jIClciWHl8lfajytzioP7UCyhmGZktga3eDTikHjYIqOZSZ79hqA==>
argues
that the hostility Russia has generated in the U.S. has driven it closer to
China politically, as the two powers face a common adversary — but this
comes at the risk of economic domination as its giant neighbor builds up
its new Silk Road routes across the Eurasian steppes. “Their [political]
closeness,” Lukin says, “cannot conceal the reality that China’s economy is
more than eight times bigger than Russia’s, and the gap continues to grow.
It remains to be seen if, in the long run, this economic asymmetry will
develop into political inequality, with Russia becoming a tributary state
along China’s Silk Roads.”

Writing from the Sri Lankan port city of Hambantota, Jonathan Hillman
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tO_c64hSUcfMSuD57OalS8hSFB5mp2dBe3syCyRoqCmDuJiDn4LazMghE0eSDa06OaJJshsCotGY0jlpbfPnT4BgB23AHPzZL1Dato6gvfX_IgcZcuwmQajGCnXGz8Z7bzKeCUhHfNvJTBfWtHoKYhrdwRHqWfcDr0iEyFUeM0nZf-R0S8GQ-p5k7P8C259RjL40oz1Wupi0piiKlMkQJPjiPlpzDE9-UT_nK7ihis9UP0KUnkEpA-z4ybQYx4TC-Oyd2SwvTPPa0XXaiQ551w==&c=Ciy8tC35ZqxzT8y4a6pavgs-ioxgqphTiX85sTxj5CWolrj7Z_szAw==&ch=18jIClciWHl8lfajytzioP7UCyhmGZktga3eDTikHjYIqOZSZ79hqA==>
warns
of a similar risk already evident in South Asia. “In December, a Chinese
state-owned enterprise took over a port here in this small fishing town on
Sri Lanka’s southern coast,” he reports. “The port was never intended to be
Chinese-owned and operated, but it was Chinese-financed and built, creating
a debt that Sri Lanka could not repay. As Sri Lanka celebrates 70 years of
independence from British imperial rule, some fear the nation now faces a
new form of colonialism.”

For Hillman, “the episode has turned tiny Hambantota into something of a
global lighthouse. Sitting in the Indian Ocean, it serves as a warning
about the hazards of China’s global infrastructure push, which could make
small economies dependent even while helping them develop.” Others have
gone so far as to coin a new phrase
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tO_c64hSUcfMSuD57OalS8hSFB5mp2dBe3syCyRoqCmDuJiDn4LazMghE0eSDa06R7_fENf7dPDlsBnwHkizQsjgaO-vZJOrmxl8AK13G16_Gm0XGaajfMaRIVQtabF9z7UsOkZLRxX7ZLf0eW_eJprWJNsHN76MXf5RZ83saXiIOYFAot4xiBwa3k-c2O1eLdB1lpRzSU75gdTTRKgYNVoULVG_Kfpr2B9qfIYeJrJbq2XXhSoZHlCzIwGI6x2D_FSgGqXnTGk=&c=Ciy8tC35ZqxzT8y4a6pavgs-ioxgqphTiX85sTxj5CWolrj7Z_szAw==&ch=18jIClciWHl8lfajytzioP7UCyhmGZktga3eDTikHjYIqOZSZ79hqA==>
for
the potential consequence of China’s economic expansion: “creditor
imperialism.”

If history is any guide, as Oxford scholar Peter Frankopan
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001tO_c64hSUcfMSuD57OalS8hSFB5mp2dBe3syCyRoqCmDuJiDn4LazMghE0eSDa06D7F2JeMciyNgUktIm_B-W1_x4i-8WzANjWBD_m4_ywuICsztyTl4KzAl5hN0MiVWsfy9YmP0H-__YUzPIYp6OCQ4jLDSWnUtqZdVnz38oFEs8SeUb0EkIuyYt5N8e7e4v5k-0L_NoL5hqkDHdezYQTY0l_BkHcih&c=Ciy8tC35ZqxzT8y4a6pavgs-ioxgqphTiX85sTxj5CWolrj7Z_szAw==&ch=18jIClciWHl8lfajytzioP7UCyhmGZktga3eDTikHjYIqOZSZ79hqA==>
points
out, China’s new Silk Road initiative in the 21st century will be replete
with the same kind of benefits and drawbacks as the old Silk Road trading
routes millennia ago.
As a concept of governance rooted in the wisdom of one of the longest
surviving civilizations on the planet, tianxia is certainly a worthy ideal.
Its viability in today’s interdependent world of plural identities will be
determined by what actually transpires on the ground for all those under
heaven.

Nicolas Berggruen, chairman of the Berggruen Institute, agrees: “The
Washington Post has become one of the strongest pillars of quality
journalism in the age of peer-driven social media. I can think of no better
partner for The WorldPost to help improve the integrity and trustworthiness
of the democratic discourse.”
