The globalization of supply chains that accelerated after the end of the Cold War has decelerated in recent years due to factors such as natural disasters, human interventions, pandemics, and the rise of a China that aims for self-sufficiency. In the United States, the Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations have increasingly viewed China as America’s main global competitor, and efforts have intensified to secure supply chain resiliency, security, and reliability with the cooperation of like-minded countries. The clearest example is in semiconductors, seen as key to America’s national security, both militarily and economically. The competition between the United States and China is likely to escalate, but it is too early to gauge the extent to which the United States will be successful in gaining the full support of other countries in its efforts.
