Message from The Secretary General 2018
Dear Delegates,
Welcome to the 2018 World Youth Economic Forum! Every summer, the brightest students from all around the globe gather together in Shanghai to learn about and develop solutions to some of the most pressing economic issues of today. As participants of the 6th annual World Youth Economic Forum, you now have the opportunity to personally engage in intellectually rigorous debates and to offer your own insights as your committees attempt to seek answers to systemic financial problems.
This year’s conference theme is “In Tandem: Shaping the Global Imperative.” Although the world is becoming increasingly interconnected, it seems as if individual government agendas have taken precedence over the development of a shared purpose to improve the state of the world. While each committee will have a different focus, each and every delegate will be tasked to construct initiatives that consider the magnitude of the global benefit. As you prepare for the upcoming committee sessions, I urge you to keep this notion of a shared narrative in mind. How can we agree to a unified approach in the midst of differing, sometimes contentious, cultural perspectives? How can we encourage the expansion of global, shared obligations such as sustainable development? How do we ensure that our solutions are not tailored to benefit a certain country?
During the conference, I hope you are enriched by the interactions with young leaders from around the globe. Moreover, I also hope that in the course of discussion, you are challenged to think about particular issues from multiple perspectives. All delegates will have prepared their own research and may bring up unique points that you may have not previously considered. Keep an open mind during the course of debate, and I promise that the discussions you engage in and the experiences you draw from them will be much more fulfilling. I am excited to see the ideas you all will bring to Shanghai and I can’t wait to meet you all in person.
Sincerely,
James Chung
Secretary-General, World Youth Economic Forum 2018

1. 房地产经济：金融危机再反思，地产泡沫引发金融危机的历史与机制
Ten years after the financial crisis of 2008, the world is still recovering from the seismic shocks induced by the collapse of the US housing market. During our committee sessions, we will begin by analyzing the details of how such a systemic problem came to exist in the United States, the factors that contributed to perpetuating the US property bubble, and the events that sparked the market to finally crash. Then, our committee will move on to explore broader questions that pertain to other global economies. Have there been other bubbles like this before? How can countries learn from financial crises and take the necessary steps to prevent systemic market crashes? These are some of the crucial questions that economic leaders around the world continue to ask, and our committee will work together to arrive at thoughtful answers to these intricate problems.
2. 公司商业伦理：公平还是贪婪，加速攀升的高管薪酬商业合理性与伦理挑战
Executive compensation is a topic which, given today’s increasing focus on equality and fairness, engulfs aspects of economics and business ethics. In a team-based setting, Committee members will learn about and discuss the basic economics used to describe compensation and different types of compensation packages. Delegates will explore the trends
in executive pay and derive what it will look like in the future. Their assertions and views will be based on a variety of sources including theories dictated by Adam Smith and new rules and laws put forth by regulatory agencies.
3. 发展经济学委员会：政府与市场的共舞，产业升级驱动下的国家崛起
The prominent industries in a country, and how advanced they are, have an enormous bearing on that country’s success. There is a clear story, from the UK, to the US, to Japan, and now China, of how a shift from agriculture to manufacturing and eventually to high-tech industries leads to growth in income and living standards. Much of the world’s most successful countries have followed this path, but many have failed, and many see to be stuck in their development, or at a single step. In this committee, we will explore how changes in prominent industries influence economic outcomes in a country and what governments can do to promote growth or advancement, if we indeed think there is a clear path.
4.机器学习与人工智能：黑客帝国还是天下大同，人工智能驱动下的人类未来？
The world of journalism has changed drastically within the last several decades. With the advent of television, the Internet, and social media, the lens through which all of us view the world has become increasingly reliant upon modern tools and ideas. Journalism has been forced to keep up, but for an art so rooted in tradition, the transition has been riddled with challenges. During the conference, we will seek answers to the pressing questions that face the world of journalism today. In a world of free information, how does journalism stand its ground as a source of truth? How can journalism filter cultural and societal biases in order to facilitate a more cohesive global community? We will take a hands-on approach to uncovering answers to these questions and simultaneously provide real-time coverage of the conference itself. All this and much more will be explored in this committee Journalism and the Media.
5. 区块链与比特币委员会：趋势还是骗局，数字货币的未来
The 21st Century has seen a prominent rise in new economic trends, amongst which cryptocurrencies have been a key influence on the economy. Cryptocurrencies seem to have become an elusive global phenomenon with the value of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin rising to a peak value of $19498.63 on December 18th 2017. The prominence of these developments requires us to take a closer look at the rise of cryptocurrencies to better understand their influence on not only our economy, but our global societies. With the general public investing in these virtual currencies, it is now more important than ever to invest time in understanding how cryptocurrencies work and understand the psychology of the market.
6.卫生经济学委员会： 基本人权、精英特权与政府角色，医疗体制的全球困境
Undoubtedly, health care has become one of the most complex industries in our world today. Consequently, our health—our food, medicine, wellbeing—is inextricably tied to economic systems in important and even frightening ways. How do varying economic conditions in
different countries affect the design of health care models? How do imbalanced health care systems intersect with socioeconomic constructs? What sorts of relationships exist between economic phenomena, the formulation of health care solutions and ultimately, human health? This committee will grapple with these questions, and more, as we explore how global economies shape health care around the world.
7. 贸易经济委员会：条约下的自由贸易，自贸协议如何塑造全球经济
International trade has become more important as the world has become even more connected. Trade Agreements such as The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), and European Union all help regulate tariffs, quotas, and trade restrictions between countries around the world. In this committee, delegates will engage with simulations involving trade agreements and will be tasked with figuring out how they can be best used to improve their own lives and the economy of the world as a whole. Our committee will focus on both the positives and negatives of Trade Agreements, as delegates are challenged to look at the issue from many different perspectives.
8.欧洲联盟委员会：光荣与梦想下的彷徨与挑战，脱英后欧盟贸易与经济政策
The European Union (EU) is a radical political and economic experiment. Founded after the Maastricht Treaty in 1993, the EU is economically unified through its common currency, the Euro, as well as the single market with free movement of people, goods, and capital. Furthermore, the EU is politically unified through a standardized system of laws that apply in all member states. This committee aims to analyze and critique the European experiment through an economic analysis of the EU internal market and an assessment of the EU monetary union. Case studies include Brexit and its outcomes as well as the Greek Sovereign Debt Crisis (2010-2016).
9.绿色能源经济学：灰犀牛正在奔来，经济视角下的全球变暖问题
Global warming is one of the major issues significantly affecting our communities, health and our climate today. One of the decisive factors that contribute to global warming is carbon emissions. Committee members will analyze the economic impacts caused by such factors of carbon emissions, including their negative externalities and the involvement of industrial companies. Then, we will analyze the possible, improved alternatives that can substitute the conventional method of energy production. Some of the alternatives fuels, which are known as non-conventional and advanced fuels, are solar, wind, hydrogen, and nuclear energies.We will discuss how the usage of these alternatives will affect certain economies, such as the Chinese economy. For example, the Chinese are putting an effort into making electric cars, which they believe will improve their environmental status. Our committee will collaborate and combine ideas to establish original and innovative answers to this global crisis.
10. 新闻与媒体：无冕之王皇冠跌否，信息时代传媒行业的转型与挑战
The world of journalism has changed drastically within the last several decades. With the advent of television, the Internet, and social media, the lens through which all of us view the world has become increasingly reliant upon modern tools and ideas. Journalism has been forced to keep up, but for an art so rooted in tradition, the transition has been riddled with challenges. During the conference, we will seek answers to the pressing questions that face the world of journalism today. In a world of free information, how does journalism stand its ground as a source of truth? How can journalism filter cultural and societal biases in order to facilitate a more cohesive global community? We will take a hands-on approach to uncovering answers to these questions and simultaneously provide real-time coverage of the conference itself. All this and much more will be explored in this committee Journalism and the Media.
11.气候变化经济学：风起云涌 暗流涌动
Climate Change is the defining issue of the current times. While many regulations and campaigns have tried to create awareness and change people’s behavior regarding the environment, very few tactics have been more effective, and yet underutilized, than economic solutions. Our Committee will start by exploring what are the traditional and innovative proposed economic solutions to climate change. From cap-and-trade to carbon dividends taxing, we will then move on by debating what are the positive and negative aspects of each plan, possible shortcomings and successful case studies. At the end we will convene to reach a verdict on what, in our opinion, is the best economic based solution to climate change. This solution will be forwarded to the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies and the Yale Center for Business and the Environment.
12. 枪炮下的金钱：经济规律如何决定战争的过去与未来
Throughout the course of the Conference, you will use economic principles to explain human behavior in this technical problem, and you will participate in a simulation with your peers to better understand the economic rules that govern warfare’s past and present. You will use this understanding to better explain warfare’s possible future.
13. 模拟法庭委员会
今年我们选择反垄断法作为模拟审判委员会的主要议题。一般来说，反垄断法是为了规范企业的行为、促进市场的公平竞争、为消费者和社会谋利益。我们将介绍和分析美国和中国的几个典型案例，以使代表们对市场竞争如何促进效率和平等有一个大致的认识，代表们可以从这些案例中学习相关的法律立法知识，并在最后的模拟审判中加以运用。
14. ASDAN 模拟商赛 全国总决赛
