Biography
ince the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, Americans have had a historically low view of China. Professor Wu Xiaogang and his team conducted an experiment in which some Americans read messages about China’s response to COVID-19 relative to the United States and civil liberties in Hong Kong in order to better understand the reasons for change. In this colloquium, Professor Wu will analyze the results of the study and explain the importance of values for public opinion about international events.
