2016 Report to Congress US-China E&SRC

I just received the new U.S. China Economic and Security Review Commission Report to Congress for 2016.  It is nice to have it in print, but researchers also need it on-line for a searchable reference.

It is not light reading, but as a researched report it is easier reading than most academic papers or theses and covers a lot more ground.  It is sourced and has references that will keep you reading all year.  Most reports to Congress are the "look what we did" variety but this one is not.  It is well worth reading.

Let me give you a little food for thought with this quote from the Executive Summary:  "China appears to be conducting a campaign of commercial espionage against U.S. companies involving a combination of cyber
espionage and human infiltration to systematically penetrate the information systems of U.S. companies to steal their intellectual property, devalue them, and acquire them at dramatically reduced prices."
