The great global transformation: the United States, China, and the remaking of the world economic order
CUNY hosts a talk on the shifting US-China economic relationship and its implications for the global financial order.
Why we picked this
The US-China economic relationship is being remade in real time, and most public discourse about it is either alarmist or shallow. This talk at CUNY's Graduate Center promises the kind of structural analysis that actually helps you understand what is shifting and why.
The economic relationship between the United States and China is undergoing its most significant transformation since normalization. This talk at CUNY’s Graduate Center examines the structural forces driving that change: supply chain decoupling, competing industrial policies, currency dynamics, and the broader implications for a global order built on assumptions that may no longer hold.
Rather than the usual hawks-vs-doves framing, this event takes a political economy approach, asking how the remaking of the world’s two largest economic relationships reshapes everything from trade patterns to technology development to the institutions that have governed global commerce since Bretton Woods.
