China and America:  back to the future?--A Supplemental Lecture to the "Great Decisions" discussion

How will the United States respond to China's growing global presence?

From export controls on semiconductor technologies, to ongoing tensions over human rights violations in Xinjiang and beyond, to tensions across the Taiwan Strait, and to shooting down balloons, rising tensions in the US-China relationship are palpable. How is the US shaping relations with China? And how is the US working with other countries to address China's increasing global presence? The presenter, Professor Lewis, will address these questions as part of the Library's "Great Discussions" series.
