The US-China Business Relationship - Bi-Polar or the Two Pillars of a Stable World Economy – With Implications for India?

Abstract

This is more of a policy-oriented presentation discussing the extent of trade and FDI involvement between the US and China and what is at stake in the relationship in terms of money, jobs, manufacturing competitiveness, benefits and costs to the US consumer from Chinese imports, and the transition taking place in the Chinese economy. I have added implications for India. This presentation would be of interest to a wider audience and elicit questions and reactions to Don Trump's presidency.
