The United States Institute of Peace and The Academy of Political Science held a discussion with the authors of “The Geopolitical Consequences of COVID-19: Assessing Hawkish Mass Opinion in China” — from the Winter 2021–22 issue of Political Science Quarterly. The conversation looked at the current state of U.S.-China relations, how emerging trends and COVID-19 have impacted policy considerations, and where mass opinion fits into the bilateral equation.
Joshua Byun, D.G. Kim, and Sichen Li’s research on Chinese citizens’ foreign policy attitudes suggests that the global pandemic has increased optimism about China’s future trajectory, with more than half of respondents to Chinese public opinion polls saying they expect China to catch up to or surpass the United States in terms of relative power over the next decade. Those same polls also reveal a popular perception in China that COVID-19 is accelerating China’s rise relative to the United States—a finding that indicates the pandemic has played a major role in shaping public attitudes regarding great power competition.
