Abstract

This paper has made an attempt to theoretically predict US-China trade relationship under Joe Biden administration formed after the US presidential election in 2020. The author has utilized the published sources such as journal articles, newspapers and Internet to sought information. The author argues that, after evaluating the information, China will continually be under pressure regarding the bilateral trade from the current US administration. The pressure will be the outcome of aggregate US national interest (trade and political) and the long term US opposing culture against China’s rise (economically and politically). However, the author further expects that such opposition will not be as severe as the Trump administration’s period. The papers is expected to be useful for the trade analysis, MNCs and researchers alike for conducting new policy analysis and further research investigations regarding bilateral trade in a disputed political context.
