China, It's Complicated, So is US-China Relations
13 videos • 55 views • by 1990 Institute A civilization evolves and develops, just like Europe is not stuck in the Middle Ages, China today is a very different country than its ancient past. Even if one shortens the time horizon to from post WW II to today, China is a vastly different country now than from 70-80 years ago. But for many Americans, China is still an exotic and communist country. Our video series tries to unpack the complexity of China, examine its past and present, and to bring new conversations about contemporary China (and its relations with the United States) through the lens of history, culture, society, trade, economics and more. A reference library provides additional information for the videos that allows the curious to delve deeper into the topic and lesson guide for grades 6-12 teachers. In addition, a Teachers Resource portal is available for educators.
