As a new presidential administration and Congress arrive in Washington in January, China will remain a top area of focus for policymakers. Given the ongoing tense climate of competition between the world鈥檚 two superpowers, the prospects for U.S.-China collaboration on critical global issues ranging from climate change to nuclear non-proliferation to food security appear distant. What are the historical precedents for collaboration between global competitors, and do pathways toward coordination exist in this ever-evolving global environment?
On Friday, December 6, the Brookings Institution and Center for Strategic International Studies will present findings from the first phase of the 鈥淎dvancing Collaboration in an Era of Strategic Competition鈥 project. U.S. Representative Jim Himes (D-Conn.), ranking member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, will participate in a keynote fireside chat on the future of the U.S.-China relationship, and a panel discussion of scholars and practitioners will offer insights on how the United States can balance its security requirements and its need to address global challenges that affect American citizens.
Participants and viewers can submit questions via email to [email protected] or via Twitter using #USChina.
