Roundtable with Dr. Stephen Nagy

The Macdonald-Laurier Institute is Canada's leading independent, nationally focused think tank based in Ottawa. We exist to make poor public policy unacceptable in the nation's capital.

Macdonald-Laurier Institute

The 21st century’s central economic, political and security nexus will be centred in the Indo-Pacific region, stretching from North and South America, through the Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean to the east coast of Africa. Importantly, the region will be the location in which current and future great power rivalry. 
Countries such as Canada, Australia, Japan, and others will need to find ways to balance their economic and security interests as great power rivalries place increased demands on their traditional allies and friends. Key questions they face include identifying what are their converging and diverging interests in the region. What is the importance, purpose and concept of the Indo-Pacific for Canada? How can Canada take advantage of these relations, amidst rising tensions with China? 
To shed light on these issues, MLI is pleased to host an invitation-only roundtable with Dr. Stephen Nagy, senior associate professor at the International Christian University, Tokyo. His full bio can be seen below.
