A pair of Chinese economists argue that the U.S. will have a difficult time effectively de-risking from China due to a variety of hurdles, including tensions with allies over the speed and scope of strategies, vested U.S. business interests, and partisan debates about China policy within the United States. To limit the scope and impact of U.S. technology and economic policies, they suggest, Beijing should seek to improve diplomatic relations with U.S. allied and partner nations, expand economic ties with developing countries, remain open to diplomatic engagement with Washington, and invest in China’s science and technology ecosystem to address innovation bottlenecks.
A report to the National Congress of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), more commonly referred to as just the “Party Congress,” is arguably the most authoritative document in the Chinese Party-state ecosystem. It is technically the report of the outgoing Central Committee (here, the 19th Central Committee) at the quinquennial gathering of the Party Congress (here, the 20th Party Congress). Delivered by the General Secretary of the CCP (here, Xi Jinping), the report not only provides an official summary of the Party’s work over the past five years, but also outlines the official Party stance on all major policy issues and sets policy priorities for the incoming Central Committee (here, the 20th Central Committee).

The CCP Politburo holds “study sessions” on a semi-regular basis, in which an outside academic or government expert leads a discussion on a selected topic. Such sessions are important signals as to what issues the senior leadership finds important. The third study session of the 20th Central Committee Politburo was held on February 21, 2023 and was presided over by Xi Jinping. The session focused on themes related to China’s bid for technological self-reliance and emphasized the need to strengthen basic scientific research.
Summary of a lecture given by a Tsinghua University economist in which he urges Beijing to adopt measures to break free from “international technology containment.” Among other measures, Ju Jiandong suggests “Chinese technology must have at least a 30% share of the Chinese market,” to support the development of domestic technologies. In his view, failing to achieve what he terms “industrial upgrading” could lead to the future stagnation of the Chinese economy.

An excerpt from a speech given by a noted Chinese engineer highlighting several deficiencies in China’s manufacturing and R&D capacity.
This is a lengthy analysis from news outlet Xinhua discusses the policies and strategies Beijing is putting in place to transform China into a global high-tech “superpower” by 2035. The author argues that China’s science and technology innovation model has been in “catch-up mode” for some time, seeking to imitate innovations from developed countries, which has led to an underinvestment in basic research and a “lack of originality.” Top-down support for the development of specific key technologies and fields is needed, the author suggests, as is organizational and regulatory change to develop an ecosystem supportive of greater innovation.
