As global markets become increasingly interconnected, trade wars have emerged as a high-stakes economic strategy with far-reaching consequences. A potential trade conflict between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico—key partners in the North American supply chain—raises critical questions about economic growth, job security, and consumer prices. While proponents argue that tariffs and trade restrictions protect domestic industries, critics warn of rising costs, retaliatory measures, and disruptions to vital industries such as agriculture, manufacturing, and technology. Understanding the impact of trade wars is essential to assessing the future of North American economic relations, with key areas of interest including:


  • The economic implications of tariffs on American businesses, workers, and consumers
  • How a trade war with Canada and Mexico could impact the USMCA agreement and cross-border trade
  • The industries most vulnerable to supply chain disruptions and retaliatory tariffs
  • The historical impact of past trade wars on economic growth and stability
  • The role of globalization and shifting alliances in modern trade policies


Potential winners and losers: Which sectors stand to benefit, and which face economic hardship?

This issue presents a timely and complex discussion about economic policy, international relations, and the future of North American trade.

Expert Spotlight: Tiananmen Square - 37 Years Later, Why the World Still Remembers

Thirty-seven years after the events in Beijing's Tiananmen Square, the anniversary continues to spark global reflection on democracy, freedom of expression, state power, and the importance of preserving historical memory. While discussion of the events remains heavily restricted within China, commemorations continue around the world as scholars, journalists, policymakers, and human rights advocates examine the lasting significance of what occurred in the spring of 1989. The movement began in April 1989 following the death of reform-minded Chinese leader Hu Yaobang. What started as student-led gatherings evolved into a nationwide protest movement calling for political reform, greater transparency, accountability, and action against corruption. Hundreds of thousands of demonstrators occupied Tiananmen Square, while similar protests spread to cities across China. After weeks of escalating tensions, martial law was declared. On the night of June 3 and into June 4, Chinese troops and tanks moved into Beijing to clear the protests. The exact number of deaths remains disputed and unknown, with estimates ranging from hundreds to thousands. The Chinese government has never released a full accounting of those killed, injured, detained, or disappeared. Perhaps the most enduring image from the crackdown is that of the unidentified "Tank Man" who stood alone before a column of tanks on June 5, 1989. The photograph became a global symbol of individual courage in the face of overwhelming state power and remains one of the most recognizable images of the twentieth century. Why Tiananmen Still Matters Beyond its historical significance, Tiananmen remains relevant because it raises enduring questions about civil liberties, government accountability, censorship, collective memory, and the role of citizen activism. Researchers continue to study how societies remember contested events and how governments shape historical narratives. The anniversary also serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving documentary evidence and firsthand accounts for future generations. Today, remembrance efforts continue through archives, academic research, museums, oral histories, and public commemorations outside mainland China. Recent reports highlight ongoing attempts by scholars, journalists, and activists to preserve photographs, diaries, eyewitness accounts, and other records associated with the 1989 protests and crackdown.
