Great Decisions: U.S.-China Relations

America's Global Affairs Discussion Program

Great Decisions is America's largest discussion on world affairs. Forsyth County Public Library and the University of North Georgia (UNG) will present information and lead discussions on a range of fascinating and timely geopolitical topics selected by the Foreign Policy Association.

This week’s topic is U.S.-China Relations presented by Dr. Christopher Jespersen.

Washington’s relations with Beijing have reached an ominous low ebb. Both American political parties have identified China as the country’s preeminent geopolitical challenger and, in the eyes of many, a systemic threat. What is driving this deterioration of Sino-American relations, and what are America’s strategic options in the face of Chinese power and ambition?

For additional information and resources on U.S.-China Relations, please visit the Foreign Policy Association website.

Great Decisions topics for 2025 include:

January 8: American Foreign Policy at a Crossroads

January 15: U.S. Changing Leadership of the World Economy
