China's future subject of David M. Kennedy Center lecture Feb. 1

Brigham Young University’s David M. Kennedy Center for International Studies presents Eric A. Hyer of the Political Science Department as he lectures on “China’s Future: Panda, Tiger or Something Else?” Wednesday, Feb. 1, at noon in 238 Herald R. Clark Building.

Hyer is an associate professor and Asian studies coordinator at the David M. Kennedy Center. He has traveled extensively within China and Tibet, and he has twice traversed the Karakorum Highway between western China and Pakistan.

His research focuses on China’s foreign relations, especially relations with its neighbors. His field research has taken him to Russia, Vietnam, Mongolia and along China’s border with central Asia. He received a doctorate in political science from Columbia University in 1990.
