LSE IDEAS’ strategic vision is to provide academic leadership through research, events and training programmes that informs policy makers and builds networks that support rule of law and liberal principles in a rapidly changing world. I
It focuses on 3 thematic areas:
- Global Governance in a Fragmenting World
- Impact of Technology, Disinformation and New Ways of War
- Fostering Democratic Resilience for Middle Powers.
In this context, LSE IDEAS aims to contribute to the capacity of the UK as a democratic middle power – flowing from the findings of recent UK strategic review – to navigate the contemporary geopolitics, as well as lay the foundation for working with European frontline states and building a network of established and emerging middle powers in the Global South more generally.
