Andornino), International Political Economy and Political Economy of East Asia (prof. G. Gabusi), and History of Contemporary China (prof. Liu Wei). The three courses are part of the Master’s degree in International Studies, University of Torino. Seminars are held, in English or Italian, in the “Campus Luigi Einaudi” and are open to interested members of the public.
ThinkINchina was created at the Bridge Café in September 2010 by a small group of young researchers who live and work in China. Since its very beginning TIC was conceived as an informal ‘agora’ for debate on contemporary China. The idea that inspired the birth of TIC was to create a genuine space of reflection, discussion and dialogue about China in the heart of China’s academic crossroad in Wudaokou, Beijing.
The Violence & Security Seminars series is held every year in the context of the graduate course in Conflict, Security and Statebulding and of the Workshop on Armed Conflicts (prof. Stefano Ruzza). Both courses are part of the Master’s degree in International Studies, University of Torino. Seminars are held, in English or Italian, in the “Campus Luigi Einaudi” and are open to interested members of the public.

“The Chinese leadership has likely assessed that the Americans will keep up the pressure, so holding back is pointless. China is therefore likely prepared to respond strongly to US trade measures while advancing its position in key industries and supply chains.
However, while China may turn to the Global South, none of those countries can absorb Chinese goods as rich developed economies can. The Europeans might prefer adopting Trump’s demands on China to spare European companies and exporters harsh tariffs to enter the American market.”
