From New Economist:
The Institute for International Economics have just published US-China Trade Disputes: Rising Tide, Rising Stakes by Gary Clyde Hufbauer, Yee Wong and Ketki Sheth. The chapters are available to download online. Here’s a brief synopsis:
Since its accession to the WTO, China has become the United States’ third-largest trading partner and the sixth-largest market for US exports. Between 2000 and 2005, US imports from China rose from $100 billion to $243 billion, while US exports to China climbed from $16 billion to $42 billion. As China continues its rise as a great power, The United States Congress and the administration wrestle with one another over the proper tactics and strategies to shape US-China economic relations. What major disputes now, and looming on the horizon, will shape future US-China relations; and what can be done to solve, or at the very least to manage, them? This important new book examines these issues and offers suggestions for both sides.[Full Text]
