[Festival of Ideas 2019] Are the US and China Doomed to Enmity?

Relations between China and the United States have clearly gone downhill in the past few months. Is this a temporary blip caused by Donald Trump or a manifestation of deeper problems? In this lecture, Prof Kishore Mahbubani will argue that fundamental structural factors are responsible for the recent deterioration in bilateral relations. It will evaluate the economic, political, cultural and strategic fault lines between the US and China, and identify the key driving forces among these factors. Watch the lecture to find out more. This public lecture is part of the Festival of Ideas (FOI) 2019, the inaugural flagship event of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy. The theme for FOI 2019 is Governance for the Future: Asia's Perspective. ================================================ Speaker: Kishore Mahbubani, Distinguished Fellow, Asia Research Institute, National University of Singapore Moderator: Danny Quah, Dean and Li Ka Shing Professor in Economics, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy ================================================ Visit us Website: http://lkyspp.nus.edu.sg Follow us on Facebook:   / nuslkyspp   Twitter:   / lkysch   Instagram:   / lkyspp   LinkedIn University Page: https://www.linkedin.com/edu/school?i...
