Speaker
Dr. David Michael Lampton
Johns Hopkins University
School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS)
Foreign Policy Institute
Overview
For the past ten years, the United States and China have been locked in competition for who has the greatest global influence. As they enter what looks like a new Cold War of sorts, Dr. Lampton will discuss how both nations arrived at today’s juncture in U.S.-China relations, how to think about the perils of that new, more conflictual circumstance, and what both sides need to do to put our two countries on a more promising trajectory.
David M. Lampton is Senior Research Fellow at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) Foreign Policy Institute and Professor Emeritus at SAIS. For more than two decades he was Hyman Professor and Director of China Studies at SAIS. He is the former Chairman of The Asia Foundation in San Francisco, former President of the National Committee on United States-China Relations in New York, and former Dean of Faculty at SAIS. His many publications, both academic and popular, deal with U.S.-China relations, Chinese foreign policy, Chinese leadership, Chinese politics, and Chinese power.
Dr. Lampton was the author of China and the U.S. for the Foreign Policy Association’s Great Decisions program in 2023 in which many of our members participated. In January 2024, Rowman & Littlefield will publish his book entitled Living U.S.-China Relations: From Cold War to Cold War. Dr. Lampton received his B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. degrees in political science from Stanford University.
