The REMIT project aims to Reignite Multilateralism via Technology. Multilateralism is under attack and the EU is caught between the U.S. and China. While there are many ways that the decline in multilateralism affects the EU, none is more troublesome than rivalries in technology. Firstly, because of the sector’s impact on economic competitiveness and the size within economies that tech occupies. Secondly, tech is important to national security and future threats, including threats to democratic principles. Thirdly, technology is crucial to the solutions for global challenges. REMIT will create knowledge that generates policy recommendations and strategies that support the EU in reconceptualizing multilateral governance in four crucial policy areas: digital, biotechnology, security and defense, and financial technologies. REMIT researchers create this knowledge by employing the Advocacy Coalition Framework (ACF) to specific subsystems. The policy subsystem is the ACF’s unit of analysis. It is characterized by three components: the policy problem or issue; the scope of actors seeking to influence that policy; and a territorial domain or authority for policymaking. REMIT experts focus on subsystems that emerge from their expertise, analyzing the tensions and debates within each as well as defining the EU’s current role. Knowing the status quo makes the next step possible—to extrapolate ideas and to suggest pathways forward. In innovative scenario testing workshops with EU officials, important regional groupings (e.g., Mercosur, ASEAN, and African Union) and national officials, REMIT will develop policy recommendations that will give a remit to reignite multilateralism via technology. A reigniting that not only reacts to China’s rise as a systemic technology rival or Russia’s rise as a technology abuser or the dominance of large U.S.-based digital platforms, but that sets a clear vision for the future—one in which Europe plays a leading role.

REMIT 项目旨在通过技术重新点燃多边主义。多边主义受到攻击，欧盟夹在美国和中国之间。尽管多边主义的衰落对欧盟的影响有多种，但其中最麻烦的莫过于技术竞争。首先，因为该行业对经济竞争力和科技在经济体中所占规模的影响。其次，技术对国家安全和未来威胁很重要，包括对民主原则的威胁。第三，技术对于解决全球挑战至关重要。 REMIT 将创造知识，产生政策建议和战略，支持欧盟重新概念化四个关键政策领域的多边治理：数字、生物技术、安全和国防以及金融技术。 REMIT 研究人员通过将倡导联盟框架 (ACF) 应用到特定子系统来创建这些知识。政策子系统是 ACF 的分析单元。它由三个组成部分组成：政策问题或议题；试图影响该政策的行为者的范围；以及决策的领土或权力机构。 REMIT 专家专注于从他们的专业知识中产生的子系统，分析每个子系统中的紧张局势和争论，并定义欧盟当前的角色。了解现状使下一步成为可能——推断想法并提出前进的道路。在与欧盟官员、重要区域集团（例如南方共同市场、东盟和非洲联盟）和国家官员举行的创新情景测试研讨会上，REMIT 将制定政策建议，通过技术重燃多边主义。这种重新点燃不仅是对中国作为系统性技术竞争对手的崛起、俄罗斯作为技术滥用者的崛起或美国大型数字平台的主导地位做出的反应，而且还为未来设定了明确的愿景——其中欧洲将发挥主导作用。
