SUMMARY:Can China and the U.S. Coexist Productively? A Conversation with Ke
 vin Rudd
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a virtual discussion between Kevin Rudd\, fo
 rmer Prime Minister of Australia and now-President of Asia Society\, and M
 ichael D. Swaine\, Director of the East Asia Program at the Quincy Institu
 te.  While the Russia-Western confrontation over Ukraine currently dominat
 es the headlines\, the Sino-U.S. relationship remains the most consequenti
 al long-term great power relationship in the world. How Beijing and Washin
 gton engage one another strategically\, politically\, and economically wil
 l have an enormous impact on peace and prosperity across the globe. Unfort
 unately\, both capitals are steadily moving toward an adversarial\, zero-s
 um relationship that bodes ill for the future. It is no longer inconceivab
 le to contemplate a military conflict between the two superpowers.   How 
 can this disastrous outcome be avoided? Kevin Rudd is extremely well quali
 fied to offer an answer. He has deep\, pragmatic experience and scholarly 
 knowledge of China and its relations with the United States\, Australia\, 
 and other nations. In his recent book The Avoidable War: The Dangers of a 
 Catastrophic Conflict between the US and Xi Jingping's China\, he argues t
 hat it is possible for Beijing and Washington to coexist and prosper throu
 gh a process of “managed strategic competition.” Rudd and Swaine will 
 discuss his analysis and recommendations in support of that process.
