organised by IMT with the support of the US Embassy in Bucharest and US Department of State, October 9, 2024, 14:00 – 17:30, Hotel Sinaia, Romania |
Invited guest:
Glenn Tiffert is a distinguished research fellow at the Hoover Institution and a historian of modern China. He co-chairs Hoover’s program on the US, China, and the World, and also leads Stanford’s participation in the National Science Foundation’s SECURE program, a $67 million effort authorized by the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 to enhance the security and integrity of the US research enterprise. Tiffert collaborates closely with government and civil society partners around the world to document and build resilience against authoritarian interference with democratic institutions. He works extensively on the security and integrity of ecosystems of knowledge, particularly academic, corporate, and government research; science and technology policy; the domestic and international affairs of the People’s Republic of China (PRC); and malign foreign influence. He has authored or contributed to numerous Hoover publications, among them Silicon Triangle: The United States, Taiwan, China, and Global Semiconductor Security (Hoover Press, 2023). A specialist on the political and legal history of the PRC, Tiffert's academic scholarship includes publications in English and Chinese on the origins of the modern Chinese court system and judiciary, the drafting of the PRC Constitution, and the Chinese Communist Party’s efforts to globalize its censorship regime and rewrite its turbulent past. He earned his PhD from the University of California, Berkeley. |
