America v China: why the trade war won't end soon

  • America and China are edging closer to signing a deal in the trade war. But that won’t mark the end-the issues at the heart of the conflict will be very difficult to resolve. Read more here: econ.st/2qQItl6

    The world’s leading superpowers are locking horns. Over the past 16 months America and China have been trading blows through tariffs on goods. The impact is being felt on industries worldwide. But what is the story behind the America-China trade war?
    So the trade war, what have you guys been looking at? The US doesn’t like that China is growing so fast and set to overtake America as the biggest economy in the world if it hasn’t already by certain measures. Basically China and the US are caught in this race of imposing tariffs on each other so the US slaps a high tariff on certain products then China retaliates.
    It’s multiple industries across multiple markets, it’s huge. And I think right now would be a really good time to look at what’s happened how it could impact the world from now on.
    At The Economist, we’ve been covering the trade war extensively Soumaya Keynes is our trade and globalisation editor based in Washington, DC.
    How did this whole trade war kick off? How did this whole trade war start? For a long time there have been frustrations that past American administrations had with the Chinese. On the 2016 presidential campaign trail you started to see some really tough rhetoric.
    China’s economic rise has been dramatic. In 1978 China’s GDP at market prices was just 6% of America’s. Last year it had grown to 66%. When considering local spending power China has already overtaken America. This unprecedented growth began with President Deng Xiaoping. He started opening up China’s economy to the world in 1978 and the country quickly became “the world’s factory”. Over the next decade, exports as a share of GDP tripled and by 1988 15% of China’s exports went to America. The World Trade Organisation opened its doors to China in 2001. And it was America that ushered it in.
    After joining the WTO, China became an economic superpower. But people had expected the country to also become more like a Western capitalist economy. That didn’t happen. America now claims that China achieved its growth by not playing fair. Are those claims justified?
    The Trump administration has been using tariffs or taxes on imported goods to try to force the Chinese to change their ways. In July 2018 America imposed tariffs of 25% on $34bn worth of Chinese products. That almost doubled the average tariff rate on Chinese imports from 3.8% to 6.7%. And it’s American firms that have to pay that tax. But with every increase from America, came an increase from China. Since the start of the trade war China has more than doubled its average tariff rate. America’s has tripled. The fight has become overtly political because China’s tariffs are hitting President Trump’s voter base. Many counties where Trump won in the 2016 election were here in the Great Plains and these are the counties most affected by China’s tariffs.
    As things stand now, a ceasefire in the trade war could be drawing near. The two leaders are hoping to agree on a “phase one” deal soon which could mean some tariffs being lifted The Trump administration wants China to buy more American produce and tighten up their intellectual property rules. If that phase one deal is signed will it be the beginning of the end of the trade war?
    Even if there is a phase one deal there will be a lot of issues still to be resolved. But there’s more to the trade war than just tariffs. America has also imposed restrictions on some Chinese firms especially ones in the tech industry.

      Because if you are going to argue that we did in Iraq that would be false, as american companies were buying more during saddam's reign then after. (although I cant find the source for that) The real reason we invaded iraq was in order to establish a friendly democratic muslim state in the middle east, as although saudi arabia is 'friendly' to the U.S. I think that is due to a more pragmatic reason then them being democratic nation (which they aren't, they are a monarchy) and Israel is constantly dealing with extremly high tensions with their muslim neighbors and therefor their influence in the area is limited.
      But if you weren't going to argue that we did in Iraq Id love to see where else we did.

    US was hoping that China would lower its prices to offset the 20% tariff that the US companies pay. But because of Covid and shutdown of US industries, China was able to not only maintain its prices, it actually was able to increase its prices because of shortages. Even so, US still imported more and the ports are unable to handle the increased volume of over 27%. All the tariffs did was increase inflation in US as consumers ultimately pay for these tariffs !!!

      This isn't true. Had China become a free, democratic nation, the US wouldn't interfere. Eventually in the far future, India would probably pass the US in economics, since the nation has a billion people, and is developing rapidly. The US wouldn't care. But because China is a ruthless authoritarian state, the US would at least make an attempt to stop the CCP's growing influence. The US descent as the biggest economic power in the world isn't the US main worry, its the influence of a ruthless authoritarian state.
      The US is the leader of the free and democratic world, not saying that the US society is perfect by any means, but when you have a authoritarian state as the global economic power of the world, the US should (will) try to oppose it.

    If the US’s government were to consider themselves as morally and sensibly normal, then they should put their relationship with China as that of two healthy sport competitors. Either they win or they lose which is bound to happen in any competition, they have to accept it with a sense of decency and responsibility. It is senseless and outrageous and in short nonsensical and shameful for them to put blames and make slanderous accusation against their competitor for stealing their so-called training techniques and so on and even treat them as their enemy by giving all sorts of self-deceit reasons just because they lose in the competition.

      ​@@Brickfrog427 It's actually a fact that China has higher number of IP infringement law suits than in the US, more pirate movie/music downloads, asking foreign companies to sign agreement of tech transfer in order to exchange for the market, etc. However, those are not government supported tech stealing/spying. It would be absolutely ridiculous and crazy if the Chinese government send agents to steal tech and hand them over to private companies. This accusation is something Chinese people found laughable but Americans actually believe. It sounds like an excuse to start the trade war, just like WMD in Iraq and chemical weapon in Syria.
