On April 26, 2023, President Joe Biden will host President Yoon Suk Yeol of the Republic of Korea for a state visit and summit. This is only the second state visit of his administration.

Beyond industrial policy
Beyond industrial policy
The United States has (re)discovered industrial policy. As President Joe Biden's National Security Strategy puts it, the administration views “modern industrial and innovation strategy” as the backbone of the future economy.

Localizing development research
Localizing development research
“Localization” has become a buzzword in international development circles, partly thanks to a push by the United States to shift more aid funding to local actors.

Artificial idiocy
