The Task Force on U.S.-China Policy is a group of China specialists from around the United States convened by Asia Society’s Center on U.S.-China Relations and UC San Diego’s 21st Century China Center. It was first established in the fall of 2015 to reexamine the U.S.-China relationship in an increasingly uncertain time and offered up a set of recommendations to the incoming Trump administration in its 2017 report, “U.S. Policy Toward China: Recommendations for a New Administration.” It was followed by “Course Correction: Toward an Effective and Sustainable China Policy” and formation of sub-committees to examine areas such as science and technology dimensions of U.S.-China competition and China-European relations.
