The '''Global City Research Institute''' is an LoN-sanctioned NGO that studies the relationships between world cities in the context of globalization. Based out of the School of Humanities and Sciences at [[Newton University]] in [[Alstin (City)|Alstin, United Republic]], the GCRI has, since its founding in 1990, create the a biennial categorization of {{wpl|global city|world cities}} into "Alpha", "Beta" and "Gamma" tiers, based upon their international connectedness through a multitude of factors and variables.  

== GCRI Classification ==

The GCRI examines cities worldwide to narrow them down to a roster of world cities, then ranks these based on their connectivity through on 27 metrics across five dimensions: business activity, human capital, information exchange, cultural experience, and political engagement, and are categorized as follows:

* Alpha level cities are linked to major economic states/regions and highly integrated into the world economy. Alpha level cities are classified into four sections: Alpha ++, Alpha +, Alpha, and Alpha − cities.  

* Beta level cities are cities that link moderate economic regions to the world economy and are classified into three sections, Beta +, Beta, and Beta − cities.

* Gamma level cities are cities that link smaller economic regions into the world economy and are classified into three sections, Gamma +, Gamma, and Gamma − cities.

* Sufficiency level cities are cities that have a sufficient degree of services so as not to be overly dependent on world cities. This is sorted into High Sufficiency cities and Sufficiency cities.
