About the Asian Studies Center

The Asian Studies Center is The Heritage Foundation’s oldest research center. It was established in 1983 in recognition of the dynamic Asia-Pacific region’s growing importance to U.S. interests. Today, the Center is internationally recognized as one of the world’s preeminent policy think tanks working on Asian issues. Its scholars consistently advocate policies that promote liberty and democracy, economic freedom, the rule of law, and a robust system of security alliances.  Highlights include hosting the annual B.C. Lee Lecture, which has featured remarks by such notables as Henry Kissinger and Condoleezza Rice; Key Asian Indicators: A 2009 Book of Charts, which provides a snapshot in time of how countries in the region fare economically and more; and hosting the annual U.S.-India counterterrorism and the Taiwan Democracy Building in Asia conferences. The Asian Studies Center is heavily engaged with the Asian-Pacific press corps in Washington, D.C., through its one-of-a-kind Washington Roundtable for the Asia Pacific Press (WRAPP).
