The 2013 final reports have been published, and they cover such diverse topics as California teacher performance, resource acquisition between China and Latin America, and security and energy needs in the Arctic. For more on the 2013 reports, visit SIEPR Policy Briefs and a May 8th Op-Ed in the San Francisco Chronicle.
