The article argues that the US-China Trade War encompasses three dimensions: on a superficial level, it represents the resurgence of US protectionism aimed at Trump’s electoral base and the consequent bargain in relation to China to reduce trade deficits; at the intermediate level, the dispute for the leadership of important technological-productive segments; and at the deepest level, the contention for the leadership of the international system. Consequently, we demonstrate that the dispute in the 5G infrastructure sector of the Chinese company
Huawei reflects a deepest competition for the leadership of the international system.
