China: What’s next – collaboration, competition, or conflict?
With China and the U.S. dominating the world’s economies, what will China’s role be globally? There is China in the Indo-Pacific – the South China Sea and Taiwan? What are the lessons learned from Putin’s war in Ukraine? Then there is “soft power” with the Belt and Road Initiatives. What about China internally? There is the stagnation of the Chinese economy, the implications of an aging workforce, and a recent phenomenon called “lying flat.” There is also internal dissension with persecuted minorities/religious sects, like the Uyghurs and others.
This Globalist Coffeehouse will be a follow-up to a joint program earlier this month with the World Affairs Council of San Antonio. This “China Town Hall” featured presentations by some of the most knowledgeable scholars on this topic. Please join us for what will be a very timely and wide-ranging discussion.
