Series

Chatham House works to stimulate debate and research on key issues in the international arena. Its regional research programs explore the politics, economics and security of Africa, Asia, the Middle East, the Americas and Europe, with a separate program covering Russia and Eurasia. Other research programs focus on international law, international economics, international security, energy, the environment and development. Chatham House Transcripts are transcripts of speeches given and discussions held by prominent persons at the Royal Institute of International Affairs.
