We are pleased to invite you to our upcoming Master class "China and the US in a Changing World: The Silk Road's Influence" delivered by Fernando Cortinas on the 14th of May in Paris.
"About the Master Class"
The lecture will explore the growing confrontation between China and the US in different fronts, built around the so called “New Silk Road of the XXI century”.
"The New Silk Road" is a “wallet-based diplomacy”, the strategy designed by the Chinese government to make China the global leading power by the year 2050, displacing the United States from its current position of leadership.
Therefore, we will comment on the growing confrontation between China and the USA in different battle fronts: commercial, financial, monetary, technological, reputational and military, and its impact on the rest of the world, including Asia, Europe, Africa and Latin America, with a special focus on the changes taking place since Donald Trump became the new President of the US.
