COVID-19:opportunity or challenge for US-China| Upcoming Webinar





As the G20 leaders pledged support for a global response to the unprecedented coronavirus challenge, one would think it’s time that the United States and China, the world’s two economic superpowers set aside differences and join forces in this battle against humanity’s common threat. However, the past few weeks witnessed instead, a trend towards further downward spiraling in the bilateral relations already plagued by a trade war since 2018. While the US facing the massive challenge posed by the coronavirus outbreak and its financial, economic and social impacts, the underlying tensions resurfaced, crystalizing into political pressure for both Washington and Beijing over the trade deal, the increasing call for “decoupling” from Chinese technology and supply chains, and more broadly, the two countries’ role in global leadership.




Topics:



-  What are the issues concerning the implementation of the phase one trade deal amidst the coronavirus crisis and what can be done to move forward and most importantly, to facilitate bilateral trade in pharmaceuticals and medical supplies needed to save lives and protect health care staff?

-  How are developments of “decoupling” being assessed during the crisis and could the tensions surrounding the virus outbreak exacerbate the battle over 5G program?

- How likely is the pandemic spark an autarkic economic agenda in both countries?

- During the global financial crisis in 2008, China was a key player in international efforts to avert the threat of global depression. Between now and then, what have changed and what not, what are the prospects of US-China collaboration this time?

- As China starts to get back on track after being hit hard by the epidemic, its recent actions, including sending medical equipment and experts overseas, have triggered suspicion for Beijing’s bid to rival America’s international leadership. What kind of role is China being expected by the larger international community to play as a responsible power in this global alliance proposed by the recent G20 special meeting?

More Information

This book offers the most comprehensive, up-to-date assessment of China’s domestic and international migration. Restructuring economic development requires large numbers of educated and skilled talents, but this effort comes at a time when the size of China’s domestic workforce is shrinking. In response, both national and regional governments in China have been keen to encourage overseas Chinese talents and professionals to return to the country. Meanwhile, the Chinese government has initiated a number of policies to attract international highly-skilled talents and enhance the country’s competitiveness, and some Chinese policies have started attracting foreign talents, who are coming to the country to work, and even to stay. Since Chinese policies, mechanisms, and administration efforts to attract and retain skilled domestic or overseas talents are helping to reshape China’s economy and are significantly affecting the cooperation on migration and talent mobility, these aspects, in addition to being of scholarly and research interest, hold considerable commercial potential.
