The China shock and its political effects

The podcast explores the concept of the 'China shock', which refers to the belief that trade with China led to the deindustrialization of parts of the US and the loss of manufacturing jobs. While there are debates about the strength of the China shock, it has had lasting political effects. Despite China's current economic struggles, the political narrative remains focused on the idea of China as an existential challenge to America's economic position in the world.
