Global trade flows have been on a turbulent ride since the shock of COVID-19. As macro-economic activity has proceeded through fits and starts over the past 5 years, patterns of trade have gradually been taking a new shape. US-China geopolitical tensions stand as one of - but not the only - factor re-shaping the globalized trading system and bilateral flows of goods, services, and capital within it. Both Washington and Beijing bring particular objectives and constraints - bound by structural realities, political pressures, and market incentives - to managing their trade relationship and the broader constellation of networks of trade and investment that they influence. During this educational program, two experts, Emily de La Bruyère and Nathan Picarsic, unpacked for international correspondents these perspectives offer leading indicators of where the rhetoric of "deglobalization," "de-risking," and trade competition may head in the months and years ahead. This program is developed by the Association of Foreign Press Correspondents in the United States (AFPC-USA) in partnership with the Hinrich Foundation.
