Superpower Showdown: Jane Perlez

We discuss  the influence of the U.S.-China relationship on American democracy, on issues ranging from "garbage time" to soft power to geopolitical dominance of the South China Sea. 

 

Jane's civic action toolkit recommendations are: 

1. Visit China!

2. Read To Change China by Jonathan Spence and/or Daughters of the Bamboo Grove by Barbara Demick

 

Jane Perlez is a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter, former New York Times Beijing bureau chief, and fellow at Harvard Kennedy School's Belfer Center. She's also the podcast host of Face-Off: The U.S. vs. China.
