Abstract

There is increasing concern in the United States about Chinese “overcapacity” and that its dominance of the international supply of industrial goods may have implications at home for both American jobs and national security. Elizabeth Ingleson argues that Chinese overcapacity is a symptom, not a cause, of US domestic problems. Giving an overview of her new book, Made in China: When US-China Interests Converged to Transform Global Trade, she writes that US corporate interests from the 1970s – aided by policymakers in Washington – increasingly internationalized capital and manufacturing at the expense of labor.
