Lee Kuan Yew: The Grand Master’s Insights on China, the United States, and the World

About

At the prestigious Cambridge Forum, Belfer Center Director Graham Allison discusses his new book (co-authored with Robert Blackwill) on Lee Kuan Yew, “the power behind the throne” in modern Asian political leadership. The 90-year-old founding father of modern Singapore, Lee has been a mentor to every Chinese leader since Deng Xiaoping, and has counseled every U.S. president since Nixon. This concise book extracts the essence of Lee Kuan Yew’s visionary thinking about the critical global issues of our time, including the future of China, the fate of U.S.-China relations, India’s murky prospects, and Europe’s deep problems.
