RIETI-CEPR Symposium
Future of Global Trade Order and Economic Security
April 16, 2024
Introduction
Recently, the geopolitical landscape has shifted due to significant global events. COVID-19, the conflict in Ukraine, and rising tensions among major powers such as the U.S. and China, have resulted in changes in the trend of globalization. The global trade order and economic security are becoming increasingly important themes in the international community. Is it possible to restore the trade order in such times? What steps can be taken to mitigate the risks to economic security in the modern global climate? How can we rebuild mutual trust in international trade relations?
