b'The rising tide of President Trump\\u2019s trade warfare is not more central than in the U.S.-China relationship. With Harry G. Broadman we target the rising friction between these two economic giants. Is the Trump trade strategy \\u2013 so focused on bilateral trade balances - likely to improve economic relations between the U.S. and China? Will it help prod China in fulfilling and adhering to its obligations under the World Trade Organization, to which it acceded in 2001? \\n\\nTo dissect such questions and other matters coloring U.S.-China trade, we examine with Harry the evolution of China\\u2019s \\u2018socialist market economy\\u2019 and the growing power of China\\u2019s President Xi Jinping.
