Directions to AEI

The U.S. is increasingly interested in pursuing a bilateral approach to free trade. Negotiations are under way with several countries and regions, but Taiwan is not included on the list. Should Taiwan and the U.S. negotiate a free trade agreement? What are the economic and political considerations? What role does the U.S. "one China" policy play? Please join AEI and the Project for the New American Century for a half-day conference on Taiwan and free trade.
