The fourteenth edition of Europe's World is out. We feel it's fair to say that few if any publications in the field of international relations and policy debate have grown as fast or widened their scope so remarkably as Europe's WorldTable of contents of Issue 14.

The search is on for 'global governance' solutions to the world's economic and political problems. The trouble is, of course, that there's not much agreement across Europe or around the world on what sort of policy instruments, institutions and rules would open the way to a fairer international system serving the needs of North and South, East and West while avoiding the pitfalls that led to the global crisis.  Read more

The Finnish Institute of International Affairs (FIIA) is an independent, research-based think tank operating in conjunction with the Finnish Parliament.

FIIA was established in its present form in 2007, having existed up to that point and since the 1960s as a private foundation.

The Institute's aim is to produce policy-relevant analysis on a strategic level in order to improve decision-making as well as public awareness in Finland. The Institute is involved in academic and public discussion in its field, and the research work carried out by the staff utilizes both national and international networks.

FIIA currently has four ongoing research programmes: the European Union, International Politics of Natural Resources and the Environment, Russia in the Regional and Global Context, and Transformation of the World Order.

The Institute has a broad and active outreach programme intended for decision-makers, researchers, civil servants, NGOs and the media. We emphasize on-line publishing, producing research reports, working papers and briefing papers, mainly in English, as well as a quarterly journal in Finnish. Our events are tailored to specific target audiences and they attract both national and international speakers and audiences.

The Institute houses a public library specializing in international relations.

FIIA currently employs about 45 people, over half of whom are researchers. Primary funding is provided by the Parliament, while additional funding is raised for specific research projects.
