Event Details
Why do relations between China and the Western world still seem so fraught? One key reason is history: China's historical experience of war and conflict, deep ideological change, and revolution still deeply shape its reactions to the West. It is, however, little understood in the wider world.
Join AmCham for an engaging fireside chat with Professor Rana Mitter, S.T. Lee Chair in U.S.-Asia Relations at the Harvard Kennedy School.
This discussion will examine some of the key events from the recent and ancient past – including the war against Japan, China's post-1945 rise to global status, and the effects of Mao's revolution on China's relations with the Global South -- that continue to shape political thinking and policymaking in China and which should be better understood by its counterparts in the west and beyond.
