Synopsis "Death by China: Confronting the Dragon - a Global Call to Action (Paperback) "

The world's most populous nation and soon-to-be largest economy is rapidly turning into the planet's most efficient assassin. Unscrupulous Chinese entrepreneurs are flooding world markets with lethal products. China's perverse form of capitalism combines illegal mercantilist and protectionist weapons to pick off American industries, job by job. China's emboldened military is racing towards head-on confrontation with the U.S. Meanwhile, America's executives, politicians, and even academics remain silent about the looming threat. Now, best-selling author and noted economist Peter Navarro meticulously exposes every form of "Death by China," drawing on the latest trends and events to show a relationship spiraling out of control. Death by China reveals how thousands of Chinese cyber dissidents are being imprisoned in "Google Gulags"; how Chinese hackers are escalating coordinated cyberattacks on U.S. defense and America's key businesses; how China's undervalued currency is damaging the U.S., Europe, and the global recovery; why American companies are discovering that the risks of operating in China are even worse than they imagined; how China is promoting nuclear proliferation in its pursuit of oil; and how the media distorts the China story--including a "Hall of Shame" of America's worst China apologists. This book doesn't just catalogue China's abuses: It presents a call to action and a survival guide for a critical juncture in America's history--and the world's. Publisher's note - in this book various quotes and viewpoints are attributed to a 'Ron Vara'. Ron Vara is not an actual person, but rather an alias created by Peter Navarro in order to present his views and opinions.

Peter Navarro (born July 15, 1949 in Cambridge, Massachusetts) is an American economist and author known for his critical stance towards China and his influence on trade policies during the Donald Trump administration. He earned his bachelor's degree from Tufts University in 1972, served in the Peace Corps in Thailand, and then completed a master's at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University in 1979. In 1986, he earned his PhD in economics from Harvard University.

Navarro began his academic career as a professor at the University of California, Irvine, where he specialized in economics and public policy. His interest in the economic relations between the United States and China led him to write several books, with The Coming China Wars (2006) and Death by China: Confronting the Dragon – A Global Call to Action (2011) being the most notable. In Death by China, co-written with Greg Autry, Navarro argues that China's trade practices, such as currency manipulation and export subsidies, have severely harmed the American manufacturing industry.

During the presidency of Donald Trump, Navarro played a key role as a senior advisor on trade policies, promoting a protectionist agenda that included imposing high tariffs on Chinese products. His approach has been the subject of controversy, with critics warning about the economic risks of his policies, while his supporters consider him a defender of American industrial interests.
