Occasional Paper Series

Highlighting GWCSG-sponsored research

The GWCSG provides research grants to GW faculty to conduct investigations into the various forces that are driving globalization, the implications of globalization for business strategy and government policy, as well as the effects of globalization on people's day-to-day lives. The projects consider how globalization is changing the relationship between markets and governance at local, national and international levels; how globalization is affecting the stability of international financial markets, and how information technology effects globalization.

The Occasional Paper Series showcases research papers that have been funded by the Center. It provides GW and the general public with access to innovative ideas, expands opportunities for research collaboration between academics and practitioners, and gives more timely access to high-quality research than is available from traditional academic or professional journals.
