China announced a new global initiative during the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in Tianjin, called the Global Governance Initiative. It adds to the three ongoing, previously announced global initiatives on development, security and “civilisation.” The initiatives speak to an increasing Chinese confidence that its ideas will find global reception amidst the chaos generated by American President Donald Trump and flows from a general perception – heavily promoted by China’s own interlocutors – that the US and the rest of the West are in terminal decline.

The new initiative will attract attention, coming as it does amid questions about the continuing relevance of the United Nations and of the World Trade Organization.
