The Beijing Olympic Games were widely regarded as a great success. Many are wondering whether China will now become more assertive politically and economically in its own region and beyond. The speaker will argue that China's continued development will best be achieved through cooperation and integration with the world. She will discuss how China will follow its own part of development and relations between China and the West will not be problem free after the Olympics. Mutual understanding and adjustment will be a long and sometimes difficult process.
