    Event Report:

    Public_RSIS Webinar_Technology Nationalism and its Impact on Southeast Asia_9 October 2020

     

    Abstract

    After decades of increasing global connectivity, the current Great Power competition between the US and China is challenging globalisation and encouraging technology nationalism.

    Technology nationalism links a nation’s technology research and innovation directly to its economic growth, sustainability, prosperity, social stability, and national security. It justifies government intervention in markets as protection against hostile state or non-state actors.

    What is the impact on Southeast Asian states as they embrace technology to grow their economies, but rely on trade flows and supply chains which may be disrupted? How do Southeast Asian states respond to protectionist interventions, and are they sustainable in our interconnected world?

    This session seeks to examine these global issues from a Southeast Asian perspective.
