| Summary/Abstract |
The major, middle and small powers on China's periphery are often portrayed as passive objects of great power competition between the United States and China, but in fact the foreign policy strategies of these states plays a significant role in shaping Sino-U.S. relations and the overall order in Asia. Before examining the actors on China's periphery in this important FPRI conference, therefore, it is worth starting at the macro-level of international relations in Asia within which they operate.

| Summary/Abstract |
Since December 2010, the eyes of the world have been drawn to the dramatic developments in North Africa and the Middle East, as popular revolutions have toppled autocratic regimes throughout the region. The American people's egalitarian instincts have sided with the democratic political aspirations of these revolutions. However, our obsessive focus on free and fair elections has caused us to overlook another critical element in the construction of flourishing societies in Arab Spring countries. The framers of the new constitutions in these countries, and the people themselves, will need to construct impartial, fair, independent, and transparent judicial systems, and a culture of confidence in their courts in order to foster a robust civil society. Only then will citizens feel secure that they will be justly treated if they are subjected to overreach by popular majorities or executive entities. The development of impartial and independent courts is a prerequisite to the rule of law.

| Summary/Abstract |
The current economic mess has many alleged causes, from greedy bankers and over-generous Chinese lenders, to financially illiterate home buyers and regulators asleep at the wheel. Yet the crisis also revealed, and was in part due to, the limitations of the economic data we have relied on since the Great Depression. Celebrating ever-rising Gross Domestic Product (and for that matter rising corporate profits and share prices) blinded us to the increasingly serious risks we were taking.
