China faces major demographic, economic, social, political, and foreign policy challenges. The experts whose analyses make up Fateful Decisions examine the choices facing China’s leaders. President Xi Jinping has laid out ambitious goals with little in the way of detailed policy to explain how they will be achieved. As China’s economy slows and population ages, the demand for and costs of health care, elder care, education, and other social benefits are increasing. At the same time, global ambitions and an increasingly assertive military compete for funding and attention. The contributors to the volume examine what is at stake, possible options, and potential outcomes.
Join the National Committee on August 20 at 4:00 p.m. EDT for a virtual program with Dr. Thomas Fingar and Dr. Jean Oi as they discusses their edited volume, Fateful Decisions: Choices that Will Shape China’s Future.
