Founded in 2001, the China Research Center promotes understanding of greater China based on in-depth research and experience. The Center draws much if its expertise from the universities and institutions around the region, working collaboratively across institutions and jointly with the public and private sectors. The universities represented include Agnes Scott, Dalton State, Emory, Georgia Gwinnett College, Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia Perimeter, Georgia State, Kennesaw State, Mercer, Oglethorpe, and the University of Georgia and University of North Carolina, Greensboro, as well as The Carter Center.
The Associates of the Center believe that favorable U.S.-China relations will be critical to supporting economic development in the U.S. and greater China, and to promoting peace in the region. One of the foundations of favorable relations is mutual understanding based on knowledge and open communication. The Associates study various aspects of Chinese language, culture, history, politics, society, international relations, demographics, geography, the environment, the economic system and business environment. Our goal is to make knowledge and expertise available to a wide variety of constituents within and beyond our academic community, as well as to enhance our academic work via cross-disciplinary and institutional collaboration.
The greater China region is currently the center of economic growth in Asia. The People?s Republic has joined the World Trade Organization and hosted the 2008 summer Olympics. These events have enhanced business opportunities in China, and the incentives for Chinese companies to invest abroad. China?s growth and expanding role in global affairs promise to alter the political-economic environment in the years to come.
