DYNM 632 - China and the U.S.:Competition and Collaboration

Institution:

University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Description:

Bauer. We live and compete in a global economy increasingly dominated not only by the United States, but also by China. With a different philosophy or set of philosophies, a different concept of "society" and different assumptions about human nature and the future, China can help us to understand how "American" we are. In this course, we look at the ideals and realities of the U.S. and Chinese systems and look at how these systems have developed over time. We raise questions about how we affect each other, as well as potential areas of risk, competition, and cooperation in the Sino-U.S. relationship. Each participant will develop a comparative case study based upon one of three topics for which neither country, one might argue, has a working policy: health environment, or trade.
