SUMMARY:Global China Conversations #46  Supply Chains Under Pressure: How to Understand and Respond to China’s Evolving Export Controls?
DESCRIPTION:Supply Chains Under Pressure: How to Understand and Respond to China’s Evolving Export Controls?\n26.011.2026\, 11:00 – 12:00 (CET)\nGlobal China Conversations #46\n\n\n\nRegister online\n\n\n\n\nChina’s export control policy is evolving rapidly and becoming increasingly complex\, with growing implications for global supply chains\, corporate risk management\, supply security\, and strategic autonomy at the national and supranational levels. From critical minerals to advanced technologies\, new rules and enforcement practices are reshaping how companies and governments assess exposure and build resilience. How has China’s export control policy developed over time? What are the key drivers behind its most recent measures? What are the implications for businesses? What are the broader political and geopolitical consequences for international (economic) relations? How can businesses and policymakers respond to China’s export controls and navigate the growing regulatory uncertainty in a world marked by rising geopolitical tensions?\nThe event consists of two impulse lectures followed by a discussion. \nThe Global China Conversation #46 will be held in English. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLiterature\n\n\n\nChina Macro Group (2025)\, Understanding China’s Evolving Approach to Export Controls and Implications for International Business\, CMG Primer.  \nGarcía Bercero\, I. and Poitiers\, N.F.

SUMMARY:Global China Conversations #47  Der Industrial Accelerator Act: Kann die EU ihre wirtschaftlichen Beziehungen zu China in strategischen Sektoren neu gestalten?
DESCRIPTION:Global China Conversations #47 \nDer Industrial Accelerator Act: Kann die EU ihre wirtschaftlichen Beziehungen zu China in strategischen Sektoren neu gestalten?\n\n\n\n\n26.03.2026 \n11:00 – 12:00 \n\n\n\n\n\nOnline \n\n\nzur Online Anmeldung\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAm 4. März 2026 stellte die Europäische Kommission den Industrial Accelerator Act vor\, der als Versuch der Europäischen Union verstanden werden kann\, ihre industrielle Basis wieder zu stärken\, strategische Abhängigkeiten zu verringern und die Kontrolle über kritische Wertschöpfungsketten zurückzugewinnen. Da chinesische Unternehmen tief in europäische Lieferketten eingebunden sind und China weiterhin zu den größten Handelspartnern der EU zählt\, könnten die Auswirkungen kaum größer sein. Was will die EU mit dem Gesetz letztlich erreichen? Wie weit ist sie bereit zu gehen\, um Chinas industrielle Dominanz herauszufordern – und zu welchem Preis? Wie könnten chinesische Unternehmen reagieren\, und welche Rolle könnte die chinesische Regierung bei der Gestaltung dieser Reaktionen spielen? Und wie könnte das Gesetz die wirtschaftlichen Beziehungen zwischen Europa und China verändern? \nProgramm\nDie Veranstaltung besteht aus Impulsvorträgen der Sprecher gefolgt von einer Diskussion. \nDie Global China Conversation #47 wird auf Deutsch abgehalten. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPositionspapiere\nBinder\, J.\, Dohse\, D.\, Görg\, H.\, Liu\, W.-H.\, Schoel\, B. und Semrau\, F.O.

SUMMARY:GCC #48 From Mao to Xi: How Did the CCP Rise—and How Does It Steer China’s Development?
DESCRIPTION:Global China Conversations #48 \nFrom Mao to Xi: How Did the CCP Rise—and How Does It Steer China’s Development?\n07 May 2026\n11:00 – 12:00 CEST\nOnline with registration: Register online \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nChina’s rise as a global economic and political power is closely linked to the evolving role of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in shaping development strategies and governance structures. As geopolitical tensions increase and China’s global footprint expands\, understanding the institutional foundations of CCP rule is becoming increasingly relevant for policymakers and researchers alike. This Global China Conversation connects historical trajectories with present-day developments\, and provides a framework for understanding how political authority and economic transformation are intertwined in China’s development path. How has the CCP historically built and maintained political control while transforming China’s economic system? How do institutional arrangements and political incentives shape policy implementation and economic outcomes? And to what extent do historical governance practices continue to influence China’s development model under Xi Jinping? \nProgram\nThe event consists of two impulse lectures followed by a discussion. \nThe Global China Conversation #48 will be held in English. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLiterature \nChen\, T. and Kung\, J.
