Initiative for U.S.-China Dialogue on Global Issues

In this blog post members of the U.S.-China Research Group on Culture and the Common Good reflect on the two societies’ responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, how those responses have been shaped by systematic and cultural factors, and how it pertains to research group members’ scholarly work.

As part of its U.S.-China Dialogue 2020 event series, the initiative convened leading scholars and commentators on April 30, 2020 to discuss the evolving role of China in the U.S. Presidential Campaign. This blog contains edited excerpts from the virtual event, which featured E.J. Dionne (Georgetown University, Washington Post, Brookings Institution), Jia Qingguo (Peking University), Laura Silver (Pew Research Center), and Michael Green (Georgetown University).
