NYU Global Research Professor Ian Bremmer discusses China's increasing global economic power

TIME logo
Excerpt from TIME -- "China continuing to grow economically and challenging the American economic system does automatically mean less American influence. And the question is, how is the US going to respond to that? One way to respond to it is by saying, you know what, we can't do global anymore. We'd like to do a global trade agreement, but we can't. We have to support coalitions of the willing. So the more attractive the United States looks as a market, the more over time, China is likely to reform its own economic systems to challenge the US less even as it continues to grow."
