Professor Kenneth Lieberthal, Director of the John L. Thornton China Center and senior fellow in foreign policy and the global economy at the Brookings Institute, gave an excellent overview on the current status of U.S.-China relations...
Professor Lieberthal mentioned that there are (3) issues that the U.S. and China are working together upon: 1) the global economic situation 2) global climate change 3) nuclear proliferation
He menitoned that to predict the nature of future relations is nearly impossible due to numerous reasons: 1) U.S. domestic politics - 2010 Mid-Term Elections 2) Protectionist feelings are growing in both countries 3) The issue of how to handle the Iran situation
Professor Lieberthal mentioned at the end the most dangerous issues right now for both, America and China, are related to economic and trade issues...High U.S. unemployment is causing political instability, a slowly recovering economy has caused a diminished capacity for the U.S. to deal with international issues...
Our economic model has suffered greatly in the eyes of the world...Regaining our reputation is going to take some time...China's growing presence globally is only hampered due to their lack of experience in being a global heavyweight...But, how long will this be the situation in the 21st century?...My guess...Not very long...In short, we are witnessing an ongoing transformation of global power...The endgame, at this point, is anyone's guess...
