The seminar will feature a comparative look at and dialogue on how the economies of China, Hong Kong and Taiwan interact with international trade organizations, as well as how they approach trade policy between themselves and the United States. The seminar series has been designed to facilitate a broad understanding of the WTO meeting and the importance of this event for the United States, the Greater China Circle, and the world at the beginning of the new millennium. The series is intended to address the explicit impact that the WTO has on trade, with a balanced view of sustained economic growth, human rights, the environment and national security. Distinguished speakers from around the world will give presentations, followed by a response from a discussant. There also will be time for audience participation.
Admission is complimentary.
