From our press release:

(Newport, RI) - Senior policy makers, defense officials, corporate leaders, and global strategists from coast-to-coast are set to convene in Newport, RI, May 31-June 2, 2005 for "The New Map Game: Investigating War and Peace in the 21st Century,(tm)" an unconventional war game where success is achieved if peace breaks out.

This three-day executive-level game will examine Dr. Thomas P.M. Barnett's theories, pitting participants against each other in a realistic role-playing competition. The New Map Game will give players a unique experience and an intimate understanding of how global affairs and the global business environment are likely to unfold in the near future.

Participants will investigate how simulated world conditions could foster the rule of law, collective security, economic connectivity, political community, and free markets protected from destabilizing strife.
