Upcoming event! Tuesday, Feb 3: FPI welcomes Ivan Vuković, MP in Montenegro and Chair of the European Integration Committee, for a conversation with Siniša Vuković and Daniel Serwer.

Montenegro, a small multi-ethnic Balkan state, is a frontrunner in the EU accession process. After joining NATO in 2017, the country has an ambition to become the 28th EU member-state by 2028. Yet, certain domestic political actors, supported by Serbia's increasingly autocratic regime and in line with Russian strategic interests in the region, seek to prevent the country's European integration. This makes Montenegro an important piece of a wider geopolitical puzzle and, from a theoretical point of view, a very interesting case study.

What role should the US play in the region? And how can Albania resist malign influence from Russia and China, as well as cyber attacks from Iran?

In conversation with FPI Senior Fellow Edward P. Joseph.

Thursday, October 16: Join us for the launch of China and the Global Economic Order, a new book by Gregory T. Chin and Kevin P. Gallagher, published by Cambridge University Press in its Global China series. The authors trace how China has transformed its role within the Bretton Woods Institutions (BWIs), from a “rule-taker” to a “rule-shaker” and ultimately a “rule-maker” shaping new financial institutions such as the AIIB and the New Development Bank. Through the concept of “two-way countervailing power,” Gallagher and Chin show how China’s actions both inside and outside the BWIs are reshaping global economic governance and provoking new responses from Western powers.

Co-hosted with the SAIS China Research Center, the SAIS China Africa Research Initiative, and the Institute for America, China, and the Future of Global Affairs. In collaboration with and special thank to the Global Development Policy Center at Boston University.
