‘Unprecedented in the History of Nations’: Managing U.S.-China Relations

While the statements of presidents Obama and Xi have committed the United States and China to “building strategic mutual trust,” there is an increasing perception on both sides that the two countries are trending toward competition, rather than cooperation. Yet such a result is not inevitable, and with a concerted effort on the part of both countries’ governments, the risk of crisis may be averted. As former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in 2012, the U.S.-China relationship is “unprecedented in the history of nations.” Please join China experts James B. Steinberg and Susan Shirk in discussion with Orville Schell.
