Income inequality is often positively associated with higher growth, but it also brings wider income gaps.

Korea now faces a clear choice between abandoning discriminatory policies disguised as domestic regulation or risking losing access to American semiconductors and advanced technologies on which its own tech sector depends.

Digital services are the key to unlocking growth for small- and medium-sized enterprises in today’s economy. They help firms overcome financial constraints, close skills gaps, and boost productivity. Policymakers should incentivize SMEs to capitalize on those opportunities.

The European Union’s proposed Space Act systematically disadvantages U.S. satellite companies through gerrymandered regulations designed to protect EU competitors while undermining American technological leadership in the rapidly evolving space economy.

Rehearing is not only permissible but warranted in this exceptionally important case. It is necessary to reconcile this Court’s antitrust rulings on the robust nature of competition in the highly dynamic mobile gaming space.

Canada should approach exploratory talks regarding a Canada–EU digital trade agreement with caution.

Europe’s pursuit of digital sovereignty rests on a flawed premise: that competing with the United States, rather than China, should be the central priority. To advance this goal, Brussels has embraced the so-called “Airbus model”—the belief that the government-led coordination that created an aerospace champion can be replicated to achieve dominance in semiconductors, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence (AI). The idea is seductive and gaining traction, but the analogy is unproven and misguided.

Counterfeit K-beauty products are eroding brand value, endangering consumers, and threatening South Korea’s cultural and trade influence, making stronger cross-border cooperation and AI-driven enforcement essential.

To counter China’s telecom dominance and restore U.S. competitiveness, policymakers should lead a global push for Open RAN standards that foster security, innovation, and fair competition.
