The Chinese government has developed a set of remarkably innovative economic tools to shape the behavior of individuals, companies, and governments and bring them in line with Beijing’s core interests. To counter China’s authoritarian power projection, democratic governments need to band together to establish guardrails on international economic behavior.

Join Hudson Senior Fellow Nury Turkel and Axios China Reporter Bethany Allen-Ebrahimian as they discuss her new book Beijing Rules: How China Weaponized Its Economy to Confront the World.
