    How China’s next wave of innovation is reshaping the global balance of power 
     
    For decades, China’s economic rise has been symbolized by the unstoppable force of low-cost manufacturing. Today, a new and far more disruptive wave of competition is unfolding, one that threatens not just Western manufacturing but also the West’s geopolitical dominance. 
     
    In Global Tech Wars, Financial Times’ veteran journalist James Kynge delivers a gripping analysis of China’s rapid technological ascent. No longer confined to low-end goods, China is now leading in cutting-edge industries: artificial intelligence, electric vehicles, surveillance technology, robotics, and more. Big Western corporations are facing multiple disruptive shocks. 
     
    What does this mean for the future? Will China’s technological leadership translate into global geopolitical dominance? Drawing on deep research, exclusive interviews, and firsthand insights, Kynge unpacks the seismic shifts already underway—shifts that will redefine economies, industries, and global power structures in the years ahead. 
     
    With expert analysis and urgent storytelling, Global Tech Wars is an essential listen for anyone seeking to understand the forces shaping our future. 
     
    Please note: This collection includes content that has been previously released in the Financial Times’ Tech Tonic podcast.

    Customers know Brown's Chicken for its crispy buttermilk fried chicken and flaky biscuits. The Illinois-based franchise has a reputation for delicious but simple comfort food. But through no fault of its own, the words "Brown's Chicken" are also synonymous with one fateful night in January of 1993."A Real Hometown" is the trite but apt motto of Palatine, Illinois, a quaint middle-class suburb west of Chicago. On a snowy Friday evening, the staff and owners of the city's local Brown's Chicken franchise were closing up when two final customers arrived just past 9pm. As the night drew on and the employees hadn't returned home, the families of the owners and workers began to worry, prompting police to investigate. When they entered the dark building, police were shocked to find seven bodies stacked in the restaurant's freezer and fridge. The killers, of course, were long gone. In the months that followed, the horrendous story rocked Chicagoland and the case remained unsolved for nine years.The Brown's Chicken massacre is one of the most infamous cases in Illinois history, yet it is often misremembered. In Something Big, Patrick Wohl gives a new account of the story, taking listeners behind the scenes and sharing the perspective of the people who lived it.
