Jacques deLisle, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania Law School and director of Penn’s Center for East Asian Studies, and Minyuan Zhao, a Wharton management professor, recently appeared on the  Knowledge at Wharton show, part of Wharton Business Radio on SiriusXM channel 111, to discuss the latest economic developments in China and Chinese officials’ reactions to what is happening in Washington.
