Program areas at American Governance Foundation

Palladium magazine - palladium magazine explores the future of Governance and society through international journalism, long-form analysis, and social philosophy. In 2022, we continued publishing a quarterly print newsletter, which collects the best articles on key themes and updates stakeholders on our research and analysis. 2022 print editions included centralizing society, imperial frontiers, garden planet, and scientific authority. New long-form articles are published on our website each week. All of our articles were made available to the public online without paywalls or advertisements. We have been cited by prestigious governmental and nongovernmental fora including the state department, foreign affairs, the atlantic, and the the new york times. 2022 saw continued growth of the quality of our ideas and of our audience.
REFACTORING AMERICAN STATECRAFT- This project studies America's role in the world and analyzes longterm U.S. foreign policy and strategy from first principles with the goal of building capacity in critical areas of statecraft. To better understand these questions of grand strategy, the project convenes periodic meetings, workshops, and studies with scholars, policymakers, and stakeholders to address critical questions of great power competition, emerging technology, and energy security, among other topics.
CENTER FOR STRATEGIC TRANSLATION- Launched in 2022, The Center for Strategic Translation provides statesmen and scholars with the tools needed to interpret the Chinese party-state of today while training a new generation of China specialists with the skills needed to guide our relations with the China of tomorrow. The Center meets this need through initiatives in translation and education. The Center locates, translates, and annotates documents of historic or strategic value that are currently only available in Chinese. Our introductory essays, glossaries, and commentaries are designed to make these materials accessible and understandable to statesmen and scholars with no special expertise in Chinese politics or the Chinese language.
