Osher's Summer Lecture Series explores the changes that must take place to enable China and the United States to conduct themselves in a manner that will ensure mutually beneficial competition and avoid conflict? We'll address these questions by inviting recognized experts and officials from the United States, China, and Canada to examine the conflicts and suggest a way forward.
