China: 21st Century Superpower?
China’s relationship with the outside world has been one of the dominant themes in its development. How is China moving from its position of isolation to become a 21st century superpower? We focus on the post-1949 period, in particular, the China-Soviet relationship; American-China relations; China and Japan; China and India; Canadian-China policy; China’s relations with Taiwan and Hong Kong; and China’s integration into the global economy. A significant portion of the course will focus on the China trade and on key issues involved in doing business in China.
