A new international era is coming.

As new centers of power have emerged, the ability of even the most powerful states to control forces to influence domestic and foreign affairs has diminished.

The desire for peace dominates major powers, but destabilizing conflicts continue to intensify.

Economic integration has brought about unprecedented global growth, but it has also given rise to new challenges.

The divide between countries integrated into international markets and those excluded from those markets is widening.

We still face power politics and traditional security threats, but the complex and sometimes conflicting impacts of globalization are changing the laws of international relations and geopolitical strategies.

Power and influence in many regions are shifting towards non-state actors, including multinational corporations, non-governmental agencies and criminal alliances.

These major changes have a profound impact on international security and human welfare, which is also the main content of the Carnegie Institution's current research and work schedule.

The Carnegie Institution helps shape policy debates on traditional and emerging issues through the activities of four major divisions—the Global Policy Program, the Russia and Eurasia Program, the China Program, and Foreign Policy magazine.

The Carnegie Institution explores a range of issues related to China.

The research focus of the China project is on the important relationship between China's democracy and legal system construction, economic reform, and economic development and political reform.

The China Project also focuses on regional security issues related to China and provides analysis of issues related to nuclear non-proliferation and arms control in Asia and China.

The Carnegie Institution has established long-term academic exchange and cooperation plans with the Institute for International Strategic Studies of the Central Party School in Beijing and the Law Institute of the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences. It is also exploring the possibility of joint research on projects such as China's legal reform with other academic institutions in China.
