Session 1: China and the Future of International Order
The international order that exists today—a web of interlocking
institutions, rules, norms, and relationships—has for six decades advanced
peace, prosperity, and human rights. Yet how an increasingly powerful
China will relate to the international order remains a key area of uncertainty
for the United States, Japan, and Europe. Is China moving closer to the
international order or away from it? What lessons can we draw from
several decades of engagement with a rising China? Going forward, how
can trilateral cooperation reinforce the global order and thereby channel
China’s growing strength in a constructive direction? If China ultimately
decides to oppose the existing order, what steps should the world’s leading
democracies take?

Session 2: The Fall and Rise of Global Trade Diplomacy
For more than a decade, global trade liberalization has stalled, with
seemingly insurmountable disagreements between developed and emerging
2
market economies preventing the successful conclusion of the Doha
Round of trade talks. Yet parallel developments—the Trans-Pacific
Partnership, the recently announced Transatlantic Trade and Investment
Partnership and the EU-Japan free trade agreement—amount to a new
push for global trade liberalization outside the framework of the World
Trade Organization. What are the greatest roadblocks to the realization of
these agreements? How would they change the geopolitical landscape of
Asia, and how will China react? Could they provide the building blocks for
an even larger free trade area bridging the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans?

Session 3: The Contest for Innovation Supremacy
In the United States, Japan, and Europe, innovation will drive future
economic growth and job creation. Yet the technological leadership
traditionally enjoyed by the world’s established democracies can no longer
be taken for granted as China, India, and other emerging market
economies invest more in education and research and development. To
what degree do the United States, Japan, and Europe confront a
competitiveness challenge? What untapped opportunities exist for trilateral
cooperation to maintain innovation leadership? How will potentially game
changing technologies such as 3D printing and rapidly changing industries
such as robotics influence economic growth and job creation in all three?
How are these issues perceived in the private sector?

Session 4: A Tipping Point for Nuclear Nonproliferation
Global efforts to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and their delivery
systems are approaching a tipping point. North Korea’s successful
development of nuclear weapons and testing of long-range missiles and
Iran’s progress toward a nuclear capability despite increasingly punitive
international sanctions threaten the viability of the existing
nonproliferation order. How should the United States and Japan respond
to North Korea’s growing provocations? What can the EU bring to the
table? What lessons for Iran can the United States and Europe draw from
North Korea’s nuclear breakout? How can the world’s established
democracies work to ensure that Iran and North Korea do not trigger a
cascade of nuclear proliferation by insecure neighbors?

Session 5: The New Energy Matrix
The world’s energy system is in flux with the discovery of shale gas and a
move away from nuclear power in some developed countries, including
Japan. In this world, how can the United States, Japan, and Europe best
secure energy resources? Does the emergence of the United States as a net
energy exporter open up new opportunities for Japan and Europe? What
will be the role of traditional energy suppliers such as Russia and the
Middle East and how might relations with them evolve? Will greater energy
self-sufficiency on the part of the United States allow for increased
cooperation on climate change initiatives?

Session 6: Reimagining Development Cooperation
The rise of emerging power donors and the growing role of non-state
actors have opened up new frontiers of development cooperation. At the
same time, traditional providers of development assistance—the United
States, Japan, and Europe—confront growing fiscal constraints. Do the
practices of emerging power donors and non-state actors reinforce or
undermine existing standards of development assistance? How can the
world’s established democracies enhance development cooperation with
each other? What can they learn from new players, and what areas should
they prioritize?

Session 7: Burma in Flux
Burma’s political opening after decades of military rule marks a major shift
in the Asian strategic landscape. However, the outcome of the political
transition in Burma remains uncertain, as demonstrated by the recent
upsurge in sectarian violence. Where is Burma headed? What is the
appropriate balance and sequencing of economic engagement and
continued political reforms? How can the United States, Japan, and Europe
cooperate to ensure a consolidation of Burma’s political opening? Are
other regional actors likely to complement or undermine such trilateral
efforts?
