Since the 1980s there has been a steady shift from West to East in the international system, economically, politically and culturally. Emerging markets in Asia have moved up the value chain of industrial production processes, while the share of Western industrialized countries in global gross domestic product has declined. Countries such as China and India are asserting themselves in security matters and seeking new avenues for investment flows and development co-operation. China’s expected shift from export-led growth to domestic consumption might further change patterns of trade and capital flows, and it is an open debate whether the growth dynamics of India might outstrip those of China.

However, it should not be forgotten that growth in 2021 will follow a fall in GDP of 3.5% last year. While the expected unemployment rate at the end of 2021 is now 4 ...

    It was an illusion. A dream or wishful thinking—and some fake news. Scientists would develop a vaccine at break-neck speed. It would be available for all, wealthy nations sharing with the poor. But unfortunately the COVID-19 deaths continue to mount. The world is facing a maddening bottleneck, predicted in October 2020 by the Policy Center for the New South on its opinion page, quoting scientists calculations that twelve to fifteen billion vaccine shots were needed, but glass manufa ...

Dans cet article, les auteurs font une synthèse des armes « non- létales », accompagnée d’une réflexion pertinente sur l’hypothèse de la guerre propre. L’article apporte des éléments d’éclairage sur les caractéristiques techniques et juridiqu ...
