Tomorrow’s Voices: Artificial Intelligence, Communication, and the New Global Order" by Roberto Razeto and Michael Stopford is an eye-opening exploration of how communication—and the rise of artificial intelligence—are reshaping the world. In an era defined by climate crises, pandemics, and spiralling geopolitical tensions, the book reveals how language, diplomacy, and AI-driven technology can bridge divides and drive global solutions. In fact today’s daunting global challenges can only be met through an effective use of communications.

From the power of storytelling to the ethical challenges of AI, Razeto and Stopford present real-world examples of communication's transformative impact. They show how AI, when used responsibly, can amplify voices, foster transparency, and combat misinformation. Yet, they also warn of the dangers: how unchecked technology might mislead, manipulate, or deepen divides.

Through vivid case studies, the authors illustrate the role of communication in fostering a more resilient, interconnected world. "Tomorrow’s Voices" invites readers to imagine a future where communication not only informs but inspires collective action, guided by ethics and innovation. This is more than a treatise—it’s a call to shape the digital age with clarity, empathy, and purpose.

    This policy paper examines digital colonialism as a defining structural challenge of the twenty-first century and argues for the urgent pursuit of digital sovereignty in the Global South. While digitalization holds immense potential to foster inclusion and bridge development gaps, current dynamics reproduce historical patterns of dependency: data is extracted from Southern populations, routed through infrastructures owned by Northern corporations, processed by algorithms trained on ...

    Global economic growth has been more resilient than expected, as the artificial intelligence-led growth seems to be compensating for the negative impacts of trade conflicts. Overstretched asset values and slowing jobs growth may be signaling that the balanced crossing of those two paths will be challenged. ...

    The era of relative stability grounded in post-Second World War idealism, and a global compact around the principle of supporting the most vulnerable, is coming to an abrupt close. In its place is hard-nosed realpolitik, raw power, and transactional politics. The current discordant, fractious epoch—despite the sense of foreboding and crises in some quarters—may yet create the space and conditions for much needed honest dialogue on the future of development cooperation. This dialogue ...

    This article analyzes the role played by Türkiye as an emerging “middle power”[1], in Africa over the last two decades. It argues that a certain discontinuity can be identified in Türkiye’s foreign policy approach in Africa. The approach has shifted from short-term involvement with African nations to more focused, constructive, vision-oriented partnerships. In addition, Türkiye’s gradual rapprochement with Africa began with a soft-power approach through a humanitarian, cultural, and ...

    Il y a presque deux ans, le Burkina Faso, le Mali et le Niger ont quitté la CEDEAO (Communauté économique des États de l’Afrique de l’Ouest) - Organisation régionale regroupant quinze pays- pour créer un nouveau groupement d’intégration: l’Alliance des États du Sahel (AES).  Les motivations des trois pays ne sont pas conjoncturelles. Elles reflètent les difficultés de l’Organisation régionale à accompagner les pays en question dans leur quête de sécurité et de développemen ...

    Le Processus des États de l’Afrique atlantique (PEAA), lancé par Sa Majesté le Roi Mohammed VI en novembre 2023, ambitionne de transformer la façade atlantique africaine — jusqu’ici morcelée et vulnérable — en un espace géopolitique cohérent, intégré et prospère. L’Initiative s’appuie sur les provinces du Sud marocain comme pont stratégique vers les vingt- trois pays riverains de l’Atlantique, et sur une vision d’ouverture Sud-Sud et euro-africaine.Malgré des disparité ...

    Few symbols capture the post-war international order as vividly as the United Nations headquarters in New York. Officially opened in 1952, the building was conceived as both the stage of global governance and the emblem of Allied victory. Yet, nearly eight decades later, it is worth asking whether its location still reflects the true centre of gravity of world affairs. As the 80th Ordinary Session of the United Nations General Assembly approaches, economic transformation, geopolitic ...
