    Les tensions dans les relations entre les Etats-Unis et la Chine sont un sujet de préoccupation pour le monde. En dépit des quelques ouvertures éphémères, qui donnent parfois espoir à la détente, la tendance de ces derniers temps est plutôt vers l’escalade. Il ne se passe pas un mois, voire une semaine sans qu’actions, déclarations ou positions de l’un des deux pays contre l’autre ne fasse la Une de l’actualité. Des incidents les plus dangereux en Mer de Chine méridionale, aux mesur ...

    COVID-19 has delivered a powerful double punch to the chin of the global economy, combining a terrifying pandemic with a collapse in production because of the withdrawal into their homes of half the world’s workers. The uncertainty generated by the medical and economic shock is paralyzing consumers and investors, and the dispersion of short-term economic forecasts is far wider than at any time in modern history, about six times greater than during the Great Financial Crisis. The GD ...

    In discussing the potential role of peacekeeping missions in the context of the threat of the Coronavirus pandemic, two main issues arise.

Avec l’accélération de son avancée, la mondialisation est devenue de plus en plus « complexe » (Thierry de Mont Brial), et, donc, chargée « d’incertitudes » (Edgar Morin). L’imprévisibilité est ainsi devenue la marque de notre temps. Depuis le début du siècle et, donc, en à peine 20 ans, la planète a sub ...

    يتطابق القرن الواحد والعشرين مع "المرحلة القصوى" للعولمة عبر كل أبعادها في مجالات الإنتاج والتبادل والتكنولوجيا والثقافة. ومع تقدمها السريع أصبحت العولمة أكثر "تعقيدا" ومحملة بكثير من "اللايقين". هكذا أصبح الغير متوقع السمة الغالبة للتطورات الجيوسياسية والاقتصادية في عهدنا. لقد عرف العالم منذ بداية القرن، أي خلال عشرين سنة فقط ثلاثة هزات قوية وغير متوقعة. أولها تمثل في حدث جيوسياسي غير مسبوق عبر اعتداءات 11 شتنبر 2001 التي ضربت مدينة نيويورك، والثانية تمثلت في الأزمة الاقتصادية لس ...

    Par ces temps de Coronavirus, l’éducation, au Maroc, comme partout ailleurs à travers le monde, est amenée à se tourner vers des alternatives à distance. Certains voient en ce changement un risque de creusement des inégalités déjà existantes en matière d’accès, de qualité et de rétention. D’autres, saisissent cette nouvelle expérience pour ouvrir les voies de l’innovation et de la massification d’une éducation de qualité pour tous. Or, ces opportunités offertes, et ses souhaits expr ...

    On February 3, 2003, Colin Powell, U.S. President George Bush’s Secretary of State, informed the United Nations Security Council about secret information collected by the U.S. about Iraq’s weapons of mass destructions. “Every statement I make today is backed up by sources, solid sources. These are not assertions,” he said. There was “no doubt in my mind” that Saddam Hussein had a nuclear weapons program, and the invasion of Iraq was urgent and justified, because “the gravity of this ...
