Going Global?

U.S. Government Policy and the Defense Aerospace Industry

By: Mark A. Lorell,Julia F. Lowell,Richard M. Moore,Victoria A. Greenfield,Katia Vlachos

The increasing consolidation of the defense aerospace industry, brought about by post-Cold War reductions in defense authorizations, has led to the proliferation of cross-border relationships between U.S. and European firms. This report examines aerospace industry globalization trends with a view toward determining how the U.S. Air Force can best exploit such trends while minimizing their risks. It concludes that further research must be done to ascertain how the advantages of globalization, such as increased competition and interoperability, can best be achieved without compromising security concerns.

Greece's New Geopolitics

By: Ian O. Lesser,F. Stephen Larrabee,Michele Zanini,Katia Vlachos

Greece has been profoundly affected by recent changes in the internationalenvironment, on its borders, and within the country itself. Manylong-standing assumptions about Greek interests and Greece_s role havefallen away and have been supplanted by new approaches. The country hasbecome progressively more modern and more European, and its internationalpolicy has become more sophisticated. At the same time, the geopoliticalscene has evolved in ways that present new challenges and new opportunitiesfor Athens in its relations with Europe, the United States, and neighboringcountries. Many of these challenges cross traditional regional boundariesand underscore Greece_s potential to play a transregional role, lookingoutward from Europe to the Mediterranean, Eurasia, and the Middle East. Thisreport explores the new geopolitical environment Greece faces, payingspecial attention to the implications for southeastern Europe andtransatlantic relations; explores options for Greek strategy; and offerssome new directions for policy in Greece and on both sides of the Atlantic.

A Great Move

Surviving and Thriving in Your Expat Assignment

By: Katia Vlachos

In 2017, there were 57 million expatriates worldwide. While the number of corporate expat assignments is growing steadily, these assignments are expensive and fail all too often for avoidable reasons. Many expats move with minimal preparation, have unrealistic expectations and are left with insufficient resources to deal with the practical and emotional implications of a move. The result: failed moves, stressed families and damaged careers. Author Katia Vlachos strongly believes that these professional and personal expat assignment failures are avoidable -- with careful forethought and planning. In A Great Move, Vlachos provides a systematic, step-by-step guide for deciding, planning and carrying out any international move.

Off Track?

The Future of the European Defense Industry

By: Katia Vlachos-Dengler

With the defense industry of Western Europe virtually reduced to four major players (BAE SYSTEMS, THALES, EADS, and Finmeccanica), what will its role be in the global defense industry? In this report, the author provides an overview of the current state of the market; describes the major European players, their activities, and their partnerships; and explores the major driving factors of the market. She then posits alternative scenarios by examining the influence of these driving factors and traces the implications of these scenarios for the progress of transatlantic defense industrial cooperation. She concludes that the industry is in a difficult situation and suggests areas of potential change to improve the industry's future outlook.
