Gouvernance et biens communs : repenser la coopération dans un monde fragmenté

January 16, 2025

Alors que les défis globaux – changement climatique, transition énergétique, montée des conflits – s'accumulent, les outils multilatéraux peinent à offrir des solutions efficaces. La montée du protectionnisme et des intérêts nationaux exacerbe ces tensions, tandis que l'Afrique, riche en ressources stratégiques, s'impose comme un acteur incontournable. La souveraineté économique, la transformation locale des ressources et l'équité dans les échanges deviennent des impératifs pour une gouvernance mondiale qui réponde véritablement aux besoins des populations et des générations futures.

    “LEARN TO LIVE IN A WORLD WHERE AMERICA HAS NO ALLIES” In a review about the novel, Night of Camp David, published by the New York Times in 1965, a critic called the book “too plausible for comfort.” Nineteen sixty-five, ironically, was the same year that the “American congress passed the 25th Amendment, which provides a mechanism for removing a president who is deemed unfit to serve,” as reminded Alexandra Alter in the NYT article. An unknown writer, a high-ranking advisor of the ...

    *The recommendations put forth below have been published, both print and online, in the Financial Times.  The leaders of the G20 will meet on 30 November and 1 December in Buenos Aires for their annual summit. They need to acknowledge that the last two years have been characterized by strong headwinds for the world economy. This time, however, it is not a mixture of poor macroeconomic policies and bad business decisions – as in 2008 when they met in Washington for their first summi ...

Last month, the UN’s inaugural Africa Dialogue S ...

    “WIR SCHAFFEN DAS,” OR DRAGON BLOOD AND TOUGH SKIN She is modest. Powerful. Thoughtful. The most influential politician of Europe, no, in the world, as US magazine Time stated in a cover story, declaring the German as “person of the year” — in 2015. Often this powerful woman does her grocery shopping without a bodyguard, and only really dresses up for one annual gala, the Wagner-festival in Bayreuth. She enjoys opera, a sharp contrast to her speeches. Richard Wagner, the composer i ...
