The National Committee is pleased to announce the publication of a report based on a survey of leading American academic centers, think tanks, and NGOs that work on China-related issues. The report was commissioned by Carnegie Corporation of New York.
The purpose of the survey, conducted in late 2020, was to assess the state of China-focused international relations and peace and security programs in the United States. The 82 responses present a snapshot of the field in an era of global disruption, instability, and growing Sino-American tensions.
The surveyed organizations have traditionally played an important role in shaping the understanding of China among American policymakers, academics, and the general public; yet today, they face increasing pressure when doing so. Due to new dynamics in the U.S.-China relationship, scholars and practitioners have to find ways to navigate increasingly hostile environments in and between both countries, effectively manage risks, and endure heightened scrutiny of their organizations’ outputs.
