PLCY689C
Public Policy Topics; China, the U.S. and the Question of Global Order
Offered jointly with GFPL488C. The Post World War II global order, such as it was, is crumbling. There is no certainty about what systems and norms will replace it and what roles technology, war, multilateral institutions, migration, or fate mayplay. What we do know is that how the two superpowers China and the United States manage their rivalry will be a major factor in whatever comes next. This course will examine the vanishing order, the many theories about new orders, and how the historical experience and beloved myths ofthe U.S. and China may play out for good or ill.
