Forum Debate: Has the Chinese Economy Slowed Down Permanently, Temporarily, or It Depends?

After China lifted the Covid-19 lockdowns, many people expected a rebound in the Chinese economy. However, that has not materialized yet and there are concerns that the current slowdown will last for some period of time. Will the world’s second-largest economy and a critical part of global trade and manufacturing rebound? Or, will high levels of debt, an overbuilt real estate sector, increasing government controls of the economy and technology, and a shrinking population stifle growth on a long-term basis? The answer to this question is critical not only to China, but to the global economy because of the complex and myriad links between the Chinese economy and the rest of the world. On Thursday, November 16, from 5:00 pm to 6:15 pm Eastern Time, Committee of 100 hosted a public forum debate with three leading experts to shed light on this important topic, followed by a 15-minute Q&A session from the audience. Professor Shang-Jin Wei of Columbia University argued the “temporary” point of view, Professor Stephen Roach of Yale University argued the “it depends” point of view, and Dan H. Rosen of Rhodium argued the “permanent” point of view. The debate was moderated by Peter Young, a Committee of 100 member and CEO of Young & Partners. Throughout the event, there was an interactive component where attendees were able to vote. Prior to the debate, attendees indicated their initial position on the issue via a voting mechanism. Then, after the debate has concluded, they indicated their position once again, showing how the debaters have influenced the audiences’ original positions. Attendees also had the opportunity to cast their votes for the speaker they consider to be the “best debater.” --- Learn more about this event: https://www.committee100.org/events/f... 0:00 Welcome by Peter Young 3:27 About the Debaters 4:49 Pre-Debate Poll 6:09 Why is this topic important? 11:16 Opening Statement 25:04 Rebuttal 40:42 Closing Statement 54:35 Post-Debate Poll 59:08 Q&A
