Globalisation has brought wealth to the world, and the economic gap between developed and emerging countries has narrowed. However, the international order has entered an inflection point and countries are confronting extraordinary diplomatic, political and economic circumstances. In this publication, the Japan Institute of International Affairs sets out Japan’s view of current global developments, focusing on  the United States, China, Europe, Russia, the Korean Peninsula, the Middle East, and the Indo-Pacific region, as well as the world economy, security, arms control, disarmament and nonproliferation, advanced technology, and territory and history issues.
