Thank you to all who joined us at the 16th Annual Conference on China's Economic Development and U.S.-China Economic Relations. Missed out on today's insightful speakers and engaging discussion? A recording of the event will be available on our YouTube channel shortly. #GWChina24
Michael Plummer (@SAISHopkins) explains the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) as an agreement of both economic and strategic importance. As the US withdrew from TPP, China stepped into a new partnership role with East Asia and the ASEAN countries. #GWChina24
At #GWChina24, Jeff Schott (@PIIE) examines the US-China Trade War, explaining that China’s participation in regional trade pacts in the Asia-Pacific can offset declining sales to the US, while US exporters are not in CPTPP and have limited alternative IPEF opportunities.
Michele Ruta (@WorldBank) explains that there are tensions between US-China decoupling and the nature of globalized #supplychains. Despite tariffs decreasing direct dependence, to decrease indirect dependence would require government intervention and cause diplomatic tensions.
.@charlesjkenny (@CGDev) identifies why Biden’s “Build Back Better World” initiative has performed poorly in comparison to China’s Belt and Road Initiative: “Wrong financing tools” and the ineffective reliance on private investment. #GWChina24
Muyang Chen (@IIEPGW & @PKU1898) discusses the dilemmas of China’s policy banks, who finance overseas development projects: “There is growing competition between commercial and private firms as interests shift based on changing geopolitical and economic conditions.” #GWChina24
.@BUBeckyRay (@GDP_Center) explains the development of the new green Belt and Road Initiative is underway, but not fully materialized at #GWChina24. As China pivots towards renewable energy projects, it aims to decrease social and environmental risks for its lending recipients.
What has really contributed to China’s new political economy is reregulation, explains @RoselynHsueh (@TUpolisci). Diversification of property rights, perceived strategic risk, and sectoral structures shape the landscape and variation in market governance. #GWChina24
.@YelingT (@BlavatnikSchool) analyzed language in half a million newspaper articles over the past 6 years. Her findings — a spike in phrases related to the 2018 decoupling of Chinese institutions, in light of the Snowden Revelations and new US technology restrictions. #GWChina24
“In today’s era of de-globalization, global supply chains are states’ choice of weapon in the ‘wars without gunsmoke’ — shaping state-business relations and making economic statecraft more or less effective,” @lingchenjhu (@SAISHopkins) shares from her latest research. #GWChina24
#GWChina24 panelist Shanjun Li (@Cornell) explores the Chinese #EV Whitelist policy and its global implications. China is the largest EV market globally, and its 2016-2019 policy limits Chinese EV subsidies to vehicles with batteries obtained from preferred Chinese suppliers.
.@Fang_Yang_Econ (@DallasFed) examines the connection between demographic transition and #EconomicGrowth in China. In the context of a falling young dependency ratio and aging rural populations, China is increasingly becoming an urbanized country with an urban economy. #GWChina24
#GWChina24 keynote speaker @SonaliJC (@IMFNews) explains key policy changes that could offset the predicted slowdown of the Chinese economy. Implementing these policy recommendations could limit spillovers in the global economy and prevent a reversal of gains from globalization.
Keynote speaker @SonaliJC, @IMFNews Division Chief and China Mission Chief, shares insights on growing financial sector pressures, local government debt, and the housing market in China at #GWChina24. She projects growth rates falling to around 3.5% in the coming years.

what an energizing day - meeting with the amazing members of the @IIEPGW so many insights and interests about our global economy, especially appreciate the focus on shared experiences with the incredible students of GWU! an honor to co-chair this with you Carl @RichardsonUK
📣📣New Paper Alert📢📢 Does increased interconnectedness promote peace? It depends. In this paper, we build a model linking positions of two states in a global input-output network to their bilateral probability of military conflict. 1/14 Link: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

Why, despite all our riches & technologies, are we mired in so many challenges? How can we cooperate to address globally shared challenges in a polarized world? Join @UNDP on 13 March for the 🌍 launch of #HDR2024 to explore these questions together. bit.ly/430hJfK
In his keynote address, Gilles Duranton (@Wharton) argues that cities must: 1⃣ Enable urban expansion by expanding the stock of #housing 2⃣ Improve #transport infrastructure 3⃣ Work as part of a system, not as isolated units, to favour skilled mobility across #cities
📌 Highlights from the 'Planning in African Cities' session: Mohammed Alhassan Damba (@Planners_Ghana): “It’s not about ‘I’m in charge of the local/national government level’, but how do you go about delivering the development that people need – whichever model that may be.”
@yakisawyerr @FCC_Freetown On data & technology 📈 @yakisawyerr: "Freetown moved from paper-based database, to using a satellite image of the cities, roof-line measurements – this was work done by the IGC funded by @FCDOGovUK. Let’s be practical and think about how the right investments can be made."
Insights from policymakers at the opening session on 'Urban expansion and the future of #cities' 🧵 On the future of cities 🗨️ Omar Masud "Right now what we are trying to deal with is how to control #urbangrowth, [...] in such a fashion that we achieve maximum productivity.
Don't forget to join us this morning for this event!
