An underlying assumption of U.S. economic engagement with China is that the market forces unleashed by international trade and investment will necessarily spur economic and political change in Chinese society. To what extent has this assumption been borne out by more than two decades of booming economic ties between the United States and China? Is American business promoting economic and political freedoms in China, or do U.S. firms risk co-optation by Chinese authoritarianism as a result of doing business in China? AEI will hold a panel discussion to address these and other questions raised by the growing number of U.S. business ties with China.
