    Strategic Competition Engagement Series: The Convergence of Russian and Chinese Lawfare and the Implications for Strategic Security
    The Marshall Center hosted an online seminar March 25, 2026, bringing together alumni from the Marshall Center, the Daniel K. Inouye Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies, and the Ted Stevens Center to examine how Russia and China are learning from one another’s lawfare approaches and the implications for strategic security.

    “Russian and Chinese lawfare strategies arise from different traditions but are converging in practice—whether through imitation or coordination—around a shared effort to challenge the legal norms that have underpinned global stability for decades,” said U.S. Navy Cmdr. Kathryn A. Paradis. “This shift underscores a critical reality: law is no longer just a framework for order, but an active domain of strategic competition that must be integrated into both strategic and operational planning.”

    Moderated by Paradis, the panel featured Jill Goldenziel, Ph.D., professor at the National Defense University’s College of Information and Cyberspace, and Joanna Siekiera, Ph.D., assistant professor and adjunct professor at the Daniel K. Inouye Asia-Pacific Center for Security Studies. Together, they provided expert perspectives on the evolving use of legal frameworks in strategic competition.

    Designed for security practitioners shaping strategy and policy, the seminar emphasized the growing importance of lawfare in the global security landscape and reinforced the need to integrate legal considerations into both strategic and operational planning.
