This book was released on 2020-06-08 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La crise du COVID-19 a durement frappé les pays membres de l’Union européenne. Analysant ses premiers effets sur les grands équilibres mondiaux, Josep Borrell, son haut représentant pour la politique étrangère, propose six grands choix politiques pour conforter la résilience de l’Union et la doter d’une véritable autonomie stratégique. Thomas Gomart relève quant à lui que la crise a produit une véritable inversion des représentations : hier, l’Occident entendait exporter ses valeurs universelles ; aujourd’hui, il est récepteur des recettes techno-politiques venues d’Asie. En tout état de cause, entre les mastodontes américain et chinois, l’Europe est à l’heure des choix. La mise en scène de la rivalité sino-américaine, au-delà des intérêts divergents, doit beaucoup à la campagne présidentielle américaine. L’occasion d’un bilan : Trump est-il une erreur historique, ou traduit-il, avec son style, la réalité de l’Amérique ? Ses actes, ses décisions économiques et diplomatiques sont-ils erratiques ou suivent-ils la logique de ses promesses électorales ? Jusqu’où s’inscrivent-ils en rupture avec les choix des administrations précédentes ? Bref, le trumpisme existe-t-il, au-delà des effets de communication ? Et le retour d’une administration démocrate bouleverserait-il la politique étrangère du pays ? Et l’agenda du monde continue, avec des échéances toujours présentes : les négociations post-Brexit, la réforme de la zone franc d’Afrique, le problématique démantèlement du nucléaire au Japon...
Download or read book G opolitique de la Covid 19 written by Etienne Ngoie Mbayo and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2021 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Covid-19 est un virus qui a provoqué une crise sanitaire mondiale devenue, à la fois, une crise économique, sociale et politique. Au-delà de la pandémie, c'est une occasion mise à profit par des grandes puissances mondiales pour se livrer un combat géopolitique pouvant entraîner de grands changements dans les équilibres internationaux. La campagne de bienfaisance de la Chine consistant en l'envoi du personnel médical, des équipements médicaux et des vaccins aux différents pays, n'avait rien d'humanitaire. Il s'agit plutôt d'une stratégie qui lui a permis d'avancer, à pas feutrés, son influence et de s'allier les intérêts de tous les pays bénéficiaires. Les Etats-Unis n'ont pas approuvé cette volonté chinoise de contrôle du monde et, d'emblée, les tensions entre les deux grandes puissances se sont ravivées. Dans ces conditions, la crise de Covid-19 esquisse les tendances géopolitiques des équilibres stratégiques du monde de demain. Entre les deux, qui gagnera la bataille de la suprématie du monde ? Certes, la Covid-19 est un moment de crise, mais c'est aussi un moment de re-géopolitisation de l'Afrique. Pour la première fois de son histoire, elle a tenté de trouver une solution à une crise. Elle a produit Covid-Organics, considéré comme un médicament malgache contre la Covid-19. Il s'agit d'une décoction traditionnelle, préparée à base d'Artemisia, avec un protocole défini par quelques scientifiques africains, mais qui peine à être homologué.

Download or read book Eurasianism and the European Far Right written by Marlene Laruelle and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2014 Ukrainian crisis has highlighted the pro-Russia stances of some European countries, such as Hungary and Greece, and of some European parties, mostly on the far-right of the political spectrum. They see themselves as victims of the EU “technocracy” and liberal moral values, and look for new allies to denounce the current “mainstream” and its austerity measures. These groups found new and unexpected allies in Russia. As seen from the Kremlin, those who denounce Brussels and its submission to U.S. interests are potential allies of a newly re-assertive Russia that sees itself as the torchbearer of conservative values. Predating the Kremlin’s networks, the European connections of Alexander Dugin, the fascist geopolitician and proponent of neo-Eurasianism, paved the way for a new pan-European illiberal ideology based on an updated reinterpretation of fascism. Although Dugin and the European far-right belong to the same ideological world and can be seen as two sides of the same coin, the alliance between Putin’s regime and the European far-right is more a marriage of convenience than one of true love. This unique book examines the European far-right’s connections with Russia and untangles this puzzle by tracing the ideological origins and individual paths that have materialized in this permanent dialogue between Russia and Europe.
Download or read book Narratives of fear and safety written by Kaisa Kaukiainen and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this edited volume, written in English and French, tackle the intriguing problems of fear and safety by analysing their various meanings and manifestations in literature and other narrative media. The articles bring forth new, cross-cultural interpretations on fear and safety through examining what kinds of genre-specific means of world-making narratives use to express these two affectivities. The articles also show how important it is to study these themes in order to understand challenges in times of global threats, such as the climate crisis. The main themes of the book are approached from various theoretical perspectives as related to their literary and cultural representations. Recent trends in research, such as affect and risk theory, serve as the basis for the discussion. The articles in the volume also draw from disciplines such as gender studies and trauma studies to examine the threats posed by collective fears and aggression on individuals' lives and propose ways of coping with fear. These themes are addressed also in articles analysing new adaptations of old myths that retell stories of the past. Many of the articles in the volume discuss apocalyptic and dystopian narratives that currently permeate the entire cultural landscape. Dystopian narratives do not only deal with future threats, such as totalitarianism, technocracy, or environmental disasters, but also suggest alternative ways of being and new hopes in the form of political resistance.

Download or read book Tourism and Development in the Developing World written by David J. Telfer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tourism is widely considered to be an important factor in socio-economic development, particularly in less developed countries. However, despite almost universal recognition of tourism’s development potential, the extent to which economic and social progress is linked to the growth of a country’s tourism sector remains the subject of intense debate. Tourism and Development in the Developing World offers a thorough overview of the tourism-development relationship. Focusing specifically on the less developed world and drawing on contemporary case studies, this updated second edition questions widely-held assumptions on the role of tourism in development and seeks to highlight the challenges faced by destinations seeking to achieve development through tourism. The introductory chapter establishes the foundation for the book, exploring the meaning and objectives of development, reviewing theoretical perspectives on the developmental process, and assessing the reasons why less developed countries are attracted to tourism as a development option. The concept of sustainable development, as the most widely adopted contemporary model of development, is then introduced and its links with tourism critically assessed. Subsequent chapters explore the key issues associated with tourism and development, including the rise of globalization; the tourism planning and development process; the relationship between tourism and communities within which it is developed; the management implications of trends in the demand for and uptake of tourism; and an analysis of the consequences of tourism development for destination environments, economies and societies. A new chapter considers the challenges of climate change, sustainability of resource supply (oil, water and food), global economic instability, political instability and changing demographics. Finally, the issues raised throughout the book are drawn together in a concluding chapter that assesses the tourism and development ‘dilemma’. Combining an overview of essential concepts, theories and knowledge with an analysis of contemporary issues and debates in tourism and development, this new edition will be an invaluable resource for those investigating tourism issues in developing countries. The book will be of interest to students of tourism, development, geography and area studies, international relations and politics, and sociology.
Download or read book Mineral Resources and Energy written by Olivier Vidal and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our consumption of raw materials and energy has reached unprecedented levels which are continuing to increase at a steady rate due to the economic emergence of many countries and the development of new technologies. Metal and cement usage has doubled since the beginning of the 21st Century and this production, between now and 2050, will be equivalent to that produced since the beginning of humanity. It is in this context that the transition to low-carbon and renewable energies is taking place, which involves profound changes to the existing global energy system. This book addresses these different aspects and attempts to estimate first-order requirements for cement, steel, copper, aluminum and energy for different power generation technologies, and for three types of energy scenarios. Some dynamic modeling approaches are proposed to assess the needs and likely evolution of primary production and recycling. The link between production and primary reserves, recycling and stocks of end-of-life products, production costs, incomes and prices using a prey–predator dynamic is discussed. Approaches the issues of commodities and energy in terms of needs, technological innovation and economic and social issues Emphasizes the couplings between these different aspects Helps readers understand and integrate these couplings through global modeling

This book was released on 2016-12-30 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most recent Ebola epidemic that began in late 2013 alerted the entire world to the gaps in infectious disease emergency preparedness and response. The regional outbreak that progressed to a significant public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) in a matter of months killed 11,310 and infected more than 28,616. While this outbreak bears some unique distinctions to past outbreaks, many characteristics remain the same and contributed to tragic loss of human life and unnecessary expenditure of capital: insufficient knowledge of the disease, its reservoirs, and its transmission; delayed prevention efforts and treatment; poor control of the disease in hospital settings; and inadequate community and international responses. Recognizing the opportunity to learn from the countless lessons of this epidemic, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a workshop in March 2015 to discuss the challenges to successful outbreak responses at the scientific, clinical, and global health levels. Workshop participants explored the epidemic from multiple perspectives, identified important questions about Ebola that remained unanswered, and sought to apply this understanding to the broad challenges posed by Ebola and other emerging pathogens, to prevent the international community from being taken by surprise once again in the face of these threats. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop.
