44] – On Thurs., Dec. 8 at noon ET, the question will be asked: How Much Does China Really Spend on Defense [sic]? In recent decades, estimates of Chinese defense [sic] spending have varied wildly. Recognizing that market exchange rates cannot provide the best picture of Chinese defense [sic] spending on their own, analysts began using a blend of purchasing power parity and market exchange rates to represent Chinese military expenditures. With no agreed‐on methodology, however, estimates have ranged from roughly $250 billion to near $600 billion. Since the Defense[sic] Department has identified China as the “pacing challenge” for the United States, the size and shape of China’s military has significant implications for the U.S. defense [sic] budget, U.S.-Chinese relations, and the future of security in Asia. The panel will engage in a wide‐ranging discussion of how best to represent China’s growing military power. Come to the Cato Institute, 1000 Massachusetts Ave. NW, WDC and hear Eric Heginbotham, MIT; Frederico Bartels, Pantheon Integrated Solutions; and Justin Logan, CATO Institute. RSVP at https://www.cato.org/events/how-much-does-china-really-spend-defense.
