Global governance, international organizations, regional cooperation and the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) are key subjects of CCG's globalization research. As China's first think tank named and dedicated to globalization, CCG founded the China and Globalization Forum and contributes to international discussions related to globalization. It has organized seminars under themes such as WTO reform, multilateral governance, and the BRI. CCG was the first body to hold a BRI-themed event at the Munich Security Conference, a world-leading conference in the field of international security and governance.
Based on years of research in the field of globalization, CCG has published numerous research reports and books, including Win-Win International Cooperation and Path to Achievement of the Belt and Road, Globalization and Anti-Globalization and What’s Next for Globalization? Great Changes and China’s Proposed Approaches. The Handbook on China and Globalization published by Edward Elgar Publishing is one of the few books published in English by a Chinese think tank with an authoritative international academic publisher. Two of the CCG's initiatives were selected for inclusion in the first Paris Peace Forum, pioneering a new model for Chinese think tanks to fully participate in global governance and international cooperation. In addition, CCG has long-term cooperation with the WTO, UN, OECD, World Bank, IMF and many other international organizations, international think tanks and related institutions.

Cui Fan: Negotiations still best way to end disputes
Cui Fan, Non-resident senior fellow with the Center for China and Globalization (CCG) and a professor at the University of International Business and Economics The latest US investigation into China’s intellectual property policies and practices under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 is not the first of its kind. But the US has rarely used Section 301 against China after the latter’s accession to the World Trade Organization in 2001, because the WTO mechanism offers a fairer, more comprehensive solution to bilateral trade disputes.

Sun Zhe: Reciprocal thinking should prevail
Sun Zhe, an acdemic adivisor of the Center for China and Globalization (CCG) and director of the Center of China-US Relations at Tsinghua University. Intellectual property has been a constant issue in China-US trade disputes since the 1980s, a time when the US and Japan were locked in an enduring trade war over steel, intellectual property and automobiles. During those days Robert Lighthizer, incumbent US Trade Representative, established his credentials by leading a campaign of voluntary restraint agreements, countervailing duties and anti-dumping duties against Japanese imports. He might try to do the same against China.

He Weiwen: China, US should look beyond trade imbalance
Why was the dialogue unable to redress the trade imbalance? It’s because the current situation is caused by the United States’ position in the global supply chain, and it’s beyond the two countries’ power to change it.
