Intense competition has become a hallmark of the China-U.S. dynamic. But experts says neither the prospect nor the outcome is guaranteed. Our Host James Chau speaks to Chen Dongxiao, President of the Shanghai Institutes for International Relations.

When the leaders of China and the United States finally met at the G20 last month, it signaled a restart in face-to-face dialogue. But what are the outcomes from their three hour interaction? Our Host James Chau speaks with Chen Dongxiao, President of the Shanghai Institutes for International Studies.

It’s imperative to look at history when considering the current state of the China-U.S. bilateral relationship, or even the state of the world. In this video, Joseph Nye of Harvard University sits down with James Chau to discuss how the past is impacting the present, and how it can give us a better understanding of how to approach the long-term global future.

In this interview, James Chau sits down with Jeffrey Sachs, international economist and University Professor at Columbia University, to discuss bilateral technology restrictions, the China-Russia-U.S. triangular relationship, and ways in which Chinese and Americans can learn from each other.

The social and economic challenges China is experiencing are not unique. In fact, they're quite similar to obstacles being faced by the rest of the world, including the U.S. But our history and cultural heritage play a huge role in how we react. In this video, economist and Columbia University professor Jeffrey Sachs unpacks China's response to these challenges, and reminds us that if we could remember that we’re all in this together, we could undoubtedly come up with better global solutions.

The once-in-five years gathering of China’s top leaders has come and gone, setting the stage for the country’s domestic and geopolitical pursuits over the next half-decade. Jeffrey Sachs, economist and professor at Columbia University, emphasizes that the meeting made one thing clear: China will keep moving forward no matter what. And if the U.S. wants to make headway in bilateral cooperation, Washington must shift their tone.

In the 1970s, America's foreign policy was being shaped by three European immgrants, including Zbigniew Brzezinski who was a right hand man to Jimmy Carter. In this video, our Host James Chau speaks to Cheng Li of Brookings Institution, about what we can learn.

With US-China relations at recent lows, attention is turning to young, bicultural figures including Eileen Gu, the Chinese American who won gold for China at the Beijing Winter Olympics — but was born and raised in San Francisco. Cheng Li of the Brookings Institutions takes a closer look in this conversation with our Host James Chau.
