China Forum features four plenary sessions and 18 panels over two days. China’s leadership transition is taking place in the midst of rapid and seemingly fundamental changes affecting East Asia as well as the world. The United States and the European Union are still struggling to emerge from major economic crises and Japan is entering into its third decade of lackluster growth. The resulting shift in the global balance of power is affecting every aspect of the international political economy and geopolitics. Asan China Forum : "China's Leadership in Transition" covers various dimensions of China's potential new policy directions. |
