The Heart of the Matter: Reassessing the Foundations of U.S.-China Relations
The Wilson Center Kissinger Institute is hosting four leading China watchers to share their thoughts on the new strategic rationale for U.S.-China relations.
When:
October 7, 2015 2:30pm to 4:00pm
Where
President Obama and General Secretary Xi achieved incremental progress in several issue areas at their recent summit, but did not address the most important question in U.S.-China relations, at least during their public sessions: Is there a sustainable foundation for the U.S.-China relationship and what strategies and dispositions will secure both sides’ interests, and the peace, over the next two decades?
A range of experts and policymakers have asked this question in a variety of ways: Can we still afford to emphasize the cooperative side of the relationship over the competitive? Are there interests or institutions that militate against the emergence of adversarial relations? Which ideas about the relationship are dangerous, or just plain wrong? Can the United States articulate a true China strategy, or are we stuck with crossing rivers by feeling for stones?
We are honored that four leading China watchers have offered to share their thoughts on the new strategic rationale for U.S.-China relations.
