China has transformed in the past generation into a much more powerful country, while the US has worked to maintain American influence in the Pacific region. The tensions between the two countries are now at an all-time high over the South China Sea. Host Marco Werman is joined by veteran journalist Jane Perlez to examine how this happened, and what could happen next. It’s part of The World’s summerlong series, “Face Off: The US versus China.”
