Analyzing China's Domestic and Foreign Policies

The Kissinger Institute is pleased to present the work of the 2023-2024 cohort of Wilson China Fellows to the reading public. The sixteen essays featured in this collection address a wide range of policy issues relating to China. The Wilson Center is delighted to present in this volume the essays of our fourth class of fellows, from across the United States and from large state universities and small private colleges, whose efforts will determine the future of China studies and, indirectly, the efficacy of China policy in this country. 

Thanks to the partnership of the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Kissinger Institute has, to date, supported the work of seventy-two scholars from the social sciences, the humanities, and law and has helped them form connections that will strengthen their disciplines and enhance the United States’ ability to understand China and its political, economic, and environmental diplomacy. 

We hope that readers will share our optimism that the field is in good hands despite declining enrollments and worsening atmospherics in U.S.-China relations. We look forward to continuing to work with over our alumni and future grantees to ensure that interdisciplinary China studies retains its strong influence over policy and that these scholars, together with colleagues in China and in third countries, can bring their expertise to bear to secure peace under difficult circumstances
