A New Cold War?: Congressional Rhetoric and Regional Reactions to the U.S.-China Rivalry

September 16, 2024 • 9:00 am – 12:30 pm EDT

Brought to you by

Korea Chair

The Stanford Next Asia Policy Lab (SNAPL) and the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) cordially invite you to attend a symposium on A New Cold War?: Congressional Rhetoric and Regional Reactions to the U.S.-China Rivalry.

This symposium will present fresh insights into pressing geopolitical issues of our time by exploring evidence from a large-scale, comparative computational analysis of Congressional discourse on U.S. rivals challenging the notion of a new Cold War between the United States and China. Scholars and experts will also examine how U.S.-China tensions impact attitudes toward China among citizens of U.S. allies within the Asia-Pacific region, based on extensive survey data covering multiple Asia-Pacific countries. 

This conference is co-organized by the Stanford Next Asia Policy Lab (SNAPL) and the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS).
