What We Discussed in This Episode:
How has the U.S. global strategy shifted over the past three years away from the the world trade order that the U.S. established in the 70 years since World War II? What are the latest updates on U.S.-China relations? What changes does President Trump’s national security strategy present to world trade? Is China’s economic rise a threat to U.S. hegemony? Why or why not? How is the semiconductor manufacturing industry an indication of China’s strategic economic moves? How has China’s role in the new World Trade Order changed over the Trump era? Did the U.S. “win” or “lose” the trade battle with China? How is the trade war with China creating a loss for both sides? Can America continue to lead the world in any area as a divided nation? How will its divisions impacts its role in world trade and economy going forward? How does social media impact people’s understanding of changes in the world economy? How interdependent is China?Resources Mentioned:
