Paulson Institute

Original insights and ideas on the key trends and challenges shaping our world: deglobalization, deleveraging, decarbonization, and demographics. All these challenges are present in China, which is our main focus, but they are not exclusive to it. These trends afflict developing and advanced economies alike, so we occasionally take on a wider aperture to compare and contrast across countries/regions. We examine these trends through the prism of economics, energy, technology, and politics, all of which intersect and influence outcomes.
