Talk: the Fall and Rise of U.S.-China Policy Uncertainty

4:00 pm - Thursday, May 13

In this talk, Kyle Handley will discuss his research and those by others about the reduction in trade policy uncertainty from the 1990s to 2000s before and after China joined the WTO in late 2001. the U.S. commitments induced market entry and more imports from China through the 2000s. Similarly, China's commitments on its own import tariffs increased uptake of foreign intermediate inputs and trade. the fall in trade policy uncertainty during this period had some important implications for U.S. prices and employment. in contrast, the new trade war tariffs and increase in policy uncertainty during the U.S.-China trade war may cast a long shadow on business confidence and global trade. Unwinding the tariffs and restoring credibility of regional trade agreements and the WTO will require significant work. the talk will be moderated by Victor Shih.

Italy's South and North: Exploring History, Gaps and Misconceptions

4:00 pm - Saturday, May 15

Join SDSU Chair of European Studies Clarissa Clò and UCSD Professor of Italian Studies Pasquale Verdicchio in an exploration of historical causes and experiential observations on the relationship between Italy's North and South. Our panelists will share scholarly and experiential views on how inequities and prejudices between the two geographical realities have come to be. Pasquale grew up in Naples, in the south, and Clarissa in Modena, in the north, and both look at Italy from a diasporic position, as long time San Diego residents. Their reflections consider how South-North differences may be lived in Italy and then morph into new considerations when moving abroad to the United States.
