 g>Topic Description:&nbsp\;</strong>The current discussion of industrial p
 olicy in the United States is not simply about whether or not to support s
 pecific companies or industries\, but about trust or mistrust of the gover
 nment and its ability to manage the economy and deal with a rising China. 
 The upheaval in supply chains during the pandemic exposed weaknesses in th
 e international economy. What policies can the United States implement to 
 deal with trade and the economy?&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><strong>Facilitator:&nbsp\
