ASIA SOCIETY – FEBRUARY 7, 2017
With a new administration in the White House, maintaining what is 
perhaps the country’s most crucial bilateral relationship remains a 
critical issue. Organized by Asia Society’s Center on U.S.-China 
Relations and the University of California San Diego’s 21st Century 
China Center, members of a high-level Task Force on U.S.-China Policy offer their expert recommendations for the Trump administration.
The Task Force on U.S.-China Policy comprises a group of prominent 
China specialists that include former U.S. government officials, 
scholars, and think tank researchers, many of whom served under both 
political parties and every U.S. president since the Nixon 
administration. Its goal has been to reflect on how the U.S.-China 
relationship has evolved and to draft a set of recommendations for the 
incoming presidential administration on how the United States can best 
advance its interests given the current political climate. We hope this 
report can also provide the starting point for a public conversation on 
these vitally important questions.
