SUMMARY:FCCC In-Person Talk: China and the Global Economic Order by K. Gallagher and T. Chin
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the book talk of China and the Global Economic Order\, by Gregory T. Chin and Kevin P. Gallagher\, published by Cambridge University Press in its Global China series. The authors trace how China has transformed its role within and outside of the Bretton Woods Institutions (BWIs)\, from a “rule-taker” to a “rule-shaker” and ultimately a “rule-maker” by shaping new financial institutions such as the AIIB and the New Development Bank. Through the concept of “two-way countervailing power\,” Chin and Gallagher show how China’s actions\, together with other countries of the BRICS+ and Global South\, are reshaping the norms\, rules\, policies and practices of global monetary and financial governance\, and provoking new responses from Western powers. \nKevin P. Gallagher is the Director of Boston University Global Development Policy Center and a Professor of Global Development Policy at the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University. He advises global policy on climate\, debt\, and development\, including as Lead Expert on Multilateral Development Bank Reform for Brazil’s G20 Presidency. He co-chairs initiatives on green debt relief and Belt and Road sustainability and has served on U.S. and international advisory bodies. A prolific author\, he has written eight books\, with his latest ‘China and the Global Economic Order’ published in Cambridge University Press. \nGregory T. Chin is Associate Professor of Political Science/Political Economy at York University\, Canada\, and a Non-Resident Senior Fellow with the Global China Initiative at the Boston University Global Development Policy Center\, and of the Foreign Policy Institute at the Johns Hopkins University\, School of Advanced International Studies. He is the Co-Director of the Emerging Global Governance (EGG) Project at Global Policy journal online\, with Dr. Eva-Maria Nag. He has published widely on the international and comparative political economy of China\, Asia\, the BRICS and international money and global finance. He is on the advisory or editorial boards of the journal Review of International Political Economy\, Global Governance\, and The Journal of East Asian Studies. Before joining York University\, Dr. Chin worked in the Government of Canada from 2000-2007\, in Ottawa at the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade and the Canadian International Development Agency from 2000-2003\, and as First Secretary at the Canadian Embassy in Beijing from 2003-2006.

SUMMARY:FCCC In person Talk. The Rise of China’s Electric Vehicle Industry: Strategic Alliances Between Local Governments and Private Capital by Fengming Lu
DESCRIPTION:China’s EV boom wasn’t simply top-down state planning—it emerged from strategic alliances between local governments\, shut out of SOE-dominated joint ventures\, and nimble private automakers like BYD\, Geely\, and NIO. Drawing on over sixty interviews and years of fieldwork\, author Fengming Lu reveals how these local-private partnerships—from Chery’s 1990s origins to Hefei’s rescue of NIO—propelled private firms past state champions and reshaped China’s industrial geography. \nAbout the Speaker: Fengming Lu is a Lecturer (Assistant Professor) in the Department of Political and Social Change\, Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs at the Australian National University. His research covers political economy of China\, elite politics\, political selection\, and local governments. As a close observer of the Chinese automotive industry for 30 years\, Fengming is working on a book project on political economy of the booming electric vehicle (EV) industry in China\, focusing on roles of central industrial policies\, local governments’ developmental strategies\, and the global capital market.

SUMMARY:FCCC Workshop: Journalism is Not A Crime: The Regulatory Challenges of Reporting in Mainland China by James Zimmerman

Join us for an interactive discussion with media lawyer (and current chairman of AmCham China) James Zimmerman\, a partner in the office of international law firm Loeb and Loeb LLP\, in a discussion regarding how best to manage risks and thrive in China’s foreign media environment.

Based in Beijing since 1998\, James advises foreign companies on corporate\, transactional\, regulatory\, litigation and white-collar criminal defense matters.

He represents foreign media—including print\, broadcast\, and social media—in addressing the challenges related to security\, press freedoms and general operations in China. He is currently in his fifth term as chairman of the American Chamber of Commerce in China. \nJiamu Sun focuses her practice on representing foreign companies and individuals in cross-border dispute resolution proceedings\, white-collar defense proceedings\, administrative defense cases\, collection and enforcement of secured interest rights\, internal ethics investigations\, and general commercial litigation.
