The Event

Stephen Roach, Senior Fellow at the Paul Tsai China Center at Yale Law School, will speak on March 21 about recent worrisome trends in U.S.-China relations that have occurred since Donald Trump returned to the presidency. He will discuss the implications of these developments for the Chinese, U.S., and global economies and what it will take to shift the dynamic from conflict escalation to resolution.
