US, China and Taiwan: Why the triangle might get more complex

Monday, May 21, 2012 | 2:00 p.m. – 3:15 p.m.

AEI, Twelfth Floor 1150 Seventeenth Street, NW, Washington, DC 20036 (Two blocks from Farragut North Metro)

2012 looks to be an interesting year for the already complex political triangle among the United States, Taiwan and China, what with each country undergoing political transitions.

The European Union (EU) has announced plans to levy a tax on airline emissions for all planes landing and taking off from EU airports. This tax would be calculated not only based on mileage flown in EU airspace but also for the entire length of the flight (thus, Chinese and Japanese airlines would be taxed for an entire journey from Beijing or Tokyo).

Is global governance fundamentally different from earlier forms of international cooperation? Is it a necessary response to the effects of globalization?
