SUMMARY:AN EVENING WITH PROF. ARNE WESTAD
DESCRIPTION:The Sources of Chinese Conduct\nAre Washington and Beijing Figh
 ting a New Cold War?\n\n\nMore than 70 years after George Kennan wrote his
  famous “Long Telegram” laying out the containment strategy that would
  define U.S. policy until the end of the Cold War\, the United States and 
 its allies again face a communist rival that views the United States as an
  adversary and is seeking regional dominance and global influence: China. 
 What are the parallels between China today and the Soviet Union of old? Wh
 at are the differences?\n\nProf. Westad will explore this and the effect t
 hat the past four years of Trump administration policy has had on relation
 ships\, not only with China but also with the United States’ allies arou
 nd the world. Has China outsmarted the U.S.? How can the international sys
 tem reform and respond to this challenge? Using his September/October 2019
  Foreign Affairs article as a starting point\, Professor Westad will offer
  insight and analyses on what the U.S.-China policy is - and what it shoul
 d be.\n\nOdd Arne Westad is the Elihu Professor of History and Global Aff
 airs and has just been named the Director of International Security Studie
 s at Yale\, a position he will assume in July 2021. He is the author of T
 he Cold War: A World History. Originally from Ålesund on the Norwegian co
 ast\, he studied history\, philosophy\, and modern languages in Oslo befor
 e doing a graduate degree in U.S./international history at the University 
 of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Westad has published 16 books\, most of
  which deal with 20th century Asian and global history. Westad joined the
  faculty at Yale after teaching at the London School of Economics (LSE)\, 
 where he was School Professor of International History\, and at Harvard Un
 iversity\, where he was the S.T. Lee Professor of U.S.-Asia Relations. At
  Yale\, he teaches in the History Department and at the Jackson Institute 
 for Global Affairs. Westad is a fellow of the British Academy and of sever
 al other national academies\, a visiting professor at Peking University\,
