2001年10月20日至21日，中国在上海主办了亚太经合组织第九次领导人会议（峰会）。2001年亚太经合组织会议的主题是“新世纪、新挑战：参与、合作，实现共同繁荣”，分主题是：（一）分享全球化和新经济的好处;（二）促进贸易和投资;（三）促进经济持续增长。对美国来说，APEC提出了国会特别感兴趣的基本问题。一个是能否就亚太经合组织在亚太地区自由贸易和投资的愿景达成共识，还是未来的贸易自由化将主要局限于双边自由贸易协定或世界贸易组织下的多边贸易谈判。
On October 20-21, 2001, the Ninth APEC Leaders’ Meeting (summit) was hosted by China in Shanghai. The office theme for APEC 2001 was “Meeting New Challenges in the New Century: Achieving Common Prosperity through Participation and Cooperation” with the sub-themes of: (1) sharing the benefits of globalization and the new economy, (2) advancing trade and investment, and (3) promoting sustained economic growth. For the United States, APEC raises fundamental questions that are of special interest to Congress. One is whether consensus can be achieved on the APEC vision of free trade and investment in the Asia Pacific or whether future trade liberalization will be confined primarily to bilateral free-trade agreements or multilateral trade negotiations under the World Trade Organization.
