What Should U.S. Policy Be Toward China?

What Should U.S. Policy Be Toward China?

Ten Years Hence aims to engage in some structured speculation about the future – specifically the decade just ahead and the world we’re likely to inhabit ten years from now. We’ll do that from a number of perspectives, but all of it will be focused on one question: Is Globalism Dead?

Meet the Speaker: Joshua Eisenman

Joshua Eisenman is associate professor of politics at the University of Notre Dame’s Keough School of Global Affairs and senior fellow for China studies at the American Foreign Policy Council.


His research focuses on the political economy of China’s development and its foreign relations with the global south – particularly Africa. His work has been published in top academic journals including World Development, Journal of Contemporary China, Global
Environmental Politics, and the Journal of International Development and in popular outlets such as the Wall Street Journal and Foreign Policy.


Eisenman’s book, China and Africa: A Century of Engagement (University of Pennsylvania Press), co-authored with Ambassador David H. Shinn, was named one of the “Best International Relations Books for 2012″ by Foreign Affairs. The book’s updated, uncensored Chinese edition was published in 2020 by the Chinese University of Hong Kong Press. In China Steps Out: Beijing’s Major Power Engagement with the Developing World (Routledge, 2018), Eisenman and Eric Heginbotham analyze China’s policies toward countries in the Global South. His next book with Ambassador Shinn on China’s political and security relations with Africa will be published in 2023 by Columbia University Press.

This year marks the 21st anniversary of the Mendoza College of Business signature lecture series, Ten Years Hence. We invite you to join with us to see and hear a variety of experts talk about this year’s topic, framed around a question: “Is Globalism Dead?”

Some of our speakers will say the answer is “yes,” while others will say, “definitely not.” Still others aren’t so sure, offering a qualified, “perhaps.” On Friday, March 3, 2023, Joshua Eisenman joined us to speak on “What Should U.S. Policy Be Toward China?” Experience the series virtually with 75 current Notre Dame students in Jordan Auditorium for a session that promises to be engaging, informative, and fun.

Join us on select Friday mornings throughout the spring semester to learn more about the global economy and a range of related issues such as global health concerns, migration, global governance, and the intersection of public policy and the public good.
