In this episode, we are joined by Chris Miller, author of the new book Chip Wars: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology. The book tells the story of microchip, including its history and its profound impact on international relations and geopolitics today.

Chris Miller is an Associate Professor of International History at the Fletcher School at Tufts University. We discuss why the microchip is central to our world today, how Taiwan and South Korea became the two major international hubs for the manufacture of specialized chips, and about the geopolitical implications of the chip manufacturing supply chain that relies on just a few key nodes. We also discuss efforts by the US to prevent China from building a domestic advanced chip manufacture industry.
