To commemorate the legacy of Michel Oksenberg, one of the world's leading authorities on China, and the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, FSI's Shorenstein Asia-Pacific Research Center and the Stanford China Program convened experts from the U.S. and Asia on May 8, 2009 at FSI for a workshop to examine China's evolving role in a volatile world and the future of U.S.-China relations. A first panel asked "Can China Save the Global Economy?" with leading business and academic experts. A second panel of prominent policymakers and diplomats examined another issue currently in the headlines, "The Group of Two: the Future of U.S. China Relations."
