La diplomatie scientifique s’inscrit a ...

Mois sacré, quatrième pilier de l’islam, le Ramadan commémore la révélation du Coran au Prophète. Ce mois est marqué par des pratiques complémentaires : une intensification de la prière (notamment les tarawih), la récitation  complète du Coran, le renforcement de la charité envers les plus démunis et une dimension communautaire forte. Le jeûne n’est pas uniquement en termes de nourriture, un renoncement obligatoire du lever au coucher du soleil, mais une période propice à la pu ...

His father is an academic, a professor of anthropology at Columbia University, his mother, Mira Nair, is an influential filmmaker. Zohran arrived in the USA on a visa at age seven.

L’« uberisation », terme né du nom de l’entreprise américaine Uber au début des années 2010, désigne initialement un modèle économique fondé sur la mise en relation directe entre offre et demande via des plateformes numériques. Rapidement popularisé, le concept s’est élargi, avec Airbnb dans l’hébergement, puis à une multitude d’autres secteurs : livraison de repas, services à domicile, commerce en ligne, voire des métiers traditionnellement régulés ou corporatistes. Ce néologisme t ...

 Global GDP growth has proven resilient in 2025, despite the shocks caused by the trade policies implemented by United States President Donald Trump in the first year after his return to office. The gloomy projections offered by multilateral and private institutions in the first quarter of 2025 have given way to revised levels mostly in the 2.5% to 3% range for the year. ...

The artificial intelligence landscape is undergoing a fundamental shift that most people haven’t yet noticed. While “prompt engineering” has dominated conversations about optimizing AI interactions, a more sophisticated paradigm is quietly emerging: context engineering. This evolution represents more than a semantic change; it signals a transformation in how we architect intelligent systems.As Andrej Karpathy, former Director of AI at Tesla, explains: “In every industrial-strength L ...

This Policy Paper analyses the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) through the critical lens of technological colonialism. It argues that the fusion of physical, digital, and biological technologies is not merely a technical phenomenon but a civilizational shift reshaping the foundations of global power. The article traces a historical continuum from previous industrial revolutions, demonstrating how patterns of inequality and extraction persist, now transposed into the digital realm ...

An estimated 600,000 Haitians live legally on US soil, most of them in New York City and Florida. Another 500,000 are waiting—certainly in vain—for entry papers. In September, the Trump government ended a special “Temporary Protected Status” for an estimated 300,000 Haitian migrants, and possibly another 500,000 migrants temporarily settled in the U.S., including Afghans, Cubans, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans. The Trump regime is claiming that the violence-plagued Caribbean nation of ...
