<2023 March 25th Stanford-Princeton International Relations Lecture Series>
Continuing the energy from the Afternoon Tea Talk by Emeritus Prof. Princeton Alumnus Harry Harding (Founding Dean of School of Leadership and Public Policy at University of Virginia and Former Dean of the Elliott School of International Affairs at George Washington University), here is another Afternoon Tea Talk by Dr. Kharis Templeman coming on March 25th (Sat), 2023!
Topic: Can Peace be Preserved across the Taiwan Strait?
Abstract: Taiwan lies at the heart of the growing confrontation between the United States and the People’s Republic of China (PRC), and it remains the only issue that could plausibly trigger a war between the two countries. This talk will cover how the US-PRC-Taiwan relationship got to this point, and whether each side’s foremost interests and long-term strategies have changed in recent years with Xi Jinping’s centralization of power and the apparent elimination of term limits on his tenure. It will also cover the current debates in Washington over Taiwan policy, and what approaches might best ensure that peace can be maintained across the Taiwan Strait for the indefinite future.
