The rise of East Asia has caused massive changes in the global economy. As trade flows have increased, the prices of consumer goods around the world have dropped. But this flood of trade has also caused challenges, straining regulatory frameworks in the United States, and sometimes allowed unsafe goods to enter U.S. markets. How should the United States manage and monitor the vastly increased trade with East Asia? In the face of rising protectionist sentiment, how should the United States define its economic interests in the region? To address these issues and more, please join Karan Bhatia, Vice President and Senior Counsel for International Law and Policy at General Electric and Deputy U.S. Trade Representative from 2005 until 2008. | ||

As you may know, YPFP sent three teams to the CSIS-AILA Debates last month, and one of our teams claimed the Gold! YPFP would like to continue developing its members' debating skill sets, so we've scheduled an informal Speed Debates Practice Session on Thursday, August 21st, from 6-8PM at 1800 K Street, NW. Separately, we are creating a database of YPFP members who would be interested in debates of different sizes and formats moving forward. If you are interested in participating in the August 21st debates, and/or would like to be on our new debates listserve, please e-mail Ryan Miller, YPFP's Debates Coordinator, at ryan.miller@ypfp.org with your name and affiliation. In addition to debaters, we also need individuals who would be interested in judging this Thursday. | ||
