Australia-Japan Research Centre (AJRC)

http://www.apseg.anu.edu.au/AJRC/

Aims

The AJRC, based at the Australian National University, Canberra, conducts research to explore and improve understanding of Australia and Japan's strategic interests in the Asia Pacific economy, as well as to advance Asia Pacific economic cooperation and the formation of an East Asian Community. This encompasses research into trade, finance, and macroeconomics, as well as international economic relations, strategic analysis, and economic security in the Asia Pacific.

Activities

The AJRC has an active program of conferences, seminars and publications, which serves as forums for dialogue on the Centre's ongoing projects and as a vehicle for dissemination of research results. The AJRC collaborates on research activities and training with over 30 major institutions throughout the Asia Pacific region, funding the participation of researchers from around the region and providing facilities for a steady stream of visitors. The AJRC houses the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Program, the Trade and Trade Policy Program and the Asia Pacific Program on International Finance and Economy. AJRC Staff and Associates, including PhD students, work closely with the China Economy and Business Program, the Korea Program, and the ASEAN Program, as well as other programs in APSEG and the University.

Publications and other Resources

AJRC books and reports are available to order on the website for a cost and the centre's Pacific Economic Papers and a selection of papers given at conferences and seminars are available to download as PDF documents at no charge. The APEC Economies Newsletter is also available on the website at no charge as a PDF file.
