Join two Lowy Institute experts, Richard McGregor and Hervé Lemahieu, to discuss China’s post-coronavirus outlook, its troubled relationship with Australia, and the geopolitics in the region. Richard McGregor is an award-winning author on China’s political system, whose most recent book, Xi Jinping: The Backlash, outlines how President Xi has transformed the country’s one-party state and how in turn this has sparked a backlash at home and abroad. Hervé Lemahieu will outline China’s strengths and weaknesses from the data-driven perspective of the Lowy Institute Asia Power Index. The index provides a comprehensive assessment of the changing balance of power in the Indo-Pacific and of the geopolitical consequences of the coronavirus pandemic.
