EVENT DETAILS

In the past decade, China has emerged as a formidable economic force. As head of Goldman Sachs, Henry M. Paulson, Jr. played a pivotal role in opening China to private enterprise, and as Treasury Secretary he created the framework for economic dialogue between China and the United States. Drawing on his unprecedented access to modern China’s political and business elite, Paulson explores the present and future of U.S. engagement—and competition—with the world's second-largest economic power.

Henry M. Paulson, Jr., author of Dealing with China: An Insider Unmasks the New Economic Superpower, is the founder and chairman of the Paulson Institute at the University of Chicago. He served under President George W. Bush as the 74th Secretary of the Treasury from July 2006 to January 2009. Ben S. Bernanke (moderator) is Fellow in Residence with the Economic Studies Program at the Brookings Institution and served two terms as chairman of the Federal Reserve from 2006 to 2014.
