China-U.S. Supply Chain: Pragmatic Relationships and Laissez-Faire

Daniel M. Krassenstein ()

Chapter Chapter 8 in Selling to China, 2023, pp 159-175 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Today’s news cycle is dominated by the words “China'’ and “global supply chains,” with complicated stories about congested ports and elevated freight rates. The current supply chain challenges, the situation in China, and what we can expect in the future, are some of the questions being raised. Did China deliberately cause the product shortages and the higher prices we pay for consumer goods? Is China part of the problem, the solution, or both? What are the pros and cons of America’s decoupling from China and on-shoring, near-shoring, or alternative off-shoring production? How does the savvy multinational mitigate risks and manage the chaos? Can American companies build trusting relationships with their China counterparts in today’s highly politicized business environment?
