内容介绍：
    In a tele-connected world, goods and services consumed in one country are often produced in other countries and exchanged via international trade. China is the world’ largest exporter producing goods for the consumption in developed countries. On the other hand, China’s demand for goods and services is increasingly met by global supply chains involving countries that are situated in far geographical distances. Based on the hypothesis of ecologically unequal exchange, low and middle income countries export natural resources and high impact commodities which allowing richer countries to reduce ecologically harmful industries domestically. In this talk, Dr. Feng will present research on assessing the China’s position in global trade network and unequal exchange between China and the rest of world using value added and several environmental indicators: SO2 emissions, GHG emissions, Water, and Land, associated with China’s trade relations with the outside world.
