Wilson China Fellowship Conference 2023
US-China competition increasingly dominates the foreign policy conversation. Tensions in the Taiwan Strait, decoupling in strategic technological sectors, and a growing struggle for influence in regions across the world signal a 21st century that will be defined in large part by US-China competition. Yet, as President Joseph Biden has said, “We seek competition with China, not conflict.” Both countries depend upon the other economically despite concerns about dependence, and neither can address climate change alone. How can the United States compete with China while cooperating on issues of mutual interest? What role will emerging technologies and a rising Global South play in US-China relations? Is this a “cold war” or something else entirely?
The Wilson China Fellowship supports a rising generation of American scholars dedicated to exploring every facet of US-China relations and the rise of China. On May 23rd, our 2022-23 Wilson China Fellows presented their projects and discussed key policy issues with program alumni and other esteemed experts for our third annual Wilson China Fellowship Conference.
