China's Grand Strategy For Global Data Dominance | Hoover Institution

June 22, 2023 Hoover Institution | Stanford University Report author and Hoover visiting fellow Matthew Johnson finds that Xi Jinping’s Party-state is building a massive institutional architecture to maximally exploit data as the fundamental resource of the future global economy and governance system, and proposes robust policy solutions to arrest the exposure of huge swaths of the world’s population to the CCP's data accumulation, espionage, and manipulation. Johnson joined Orville Schell, Susan Aaronson, Grady McGregor, and Glenn Tiffert to discuss the implications of the CCP’s bid to shape how data will be distributed and controlled, and how Washington can lead in building a data regime shaped by democratic values. The Hoover Institution’s project on China’s Global Sharp Power and the Asia Society’s Center on U.S.-China Relations held a presentation of their new report, China’s Grand Strategy for Global Data Dominance, at Hoover’s DC office on Thursday, June 22nd, from 3:30-5:00pm ET.
