2022 a marqué une rupture générationnelle d'une ampleur insoupçonnée. Elle clôt un cycle de trente ans, ouvert en 1989 avec la chute du Mur de Berlin. Deux évènements majeurs sont à l'origine de cette cassure : la guerre menée par la Russie en Ukraine, qui n'est en réalité qu'une variante du conflit sino-américain et marque le début d'une seconde guerre froide au détriment de l'Europe ; et l'entrée de la Chine dans un nouveau modèle politique et économique à l'issue du XXe Congrès du Parti communiste chinois. Ces deux évènements produisent des conséquences en chaîne.

The dark arts have long been part of global politics, but digital systems expand their scope and scale. Yet success in secret statecraft depends on political context, not just sophisticated technology.

Questo libro affronta le questioni più tragiche e attuali della politica internazionale, dal bombardamento di Gaza alla guerra tra Iran e Israele. Il primo capitolo ricostruisce il dibattito sul genocidio a Gaza. Il secondo capitolo espone la tesi dell'autore attraverso il «paradosso della violenza estrema», secondo cui il genocidio può avvenire anche senza spargimento di sangue. Il terzo capitolo analizza le decisioni politicamente più rilevanti di Giorgia Meloni verso Gaza nei giorni dello sterminio dei palestinesi.

Federico Rampini, che lo frequenta da oltre quarant'anni, ci guida in questo viaggio fra i misteri di una civiltà antichissima e affascinante, un paese che condensa modernità e rispetto della tradizione come nessun altro, e ciononostante deve far fronte a numerosi paradossi: il paradiso delle buone maniere può essere vissuto come una prigione di conformismo, tanto che alcuni decidono di scomparire, evaporando nel nulla.

World politics has changed, claims Bruno Maçães. Geopolitics is no longer simply a contest to control territory: in this age of advanced technology, it has become a contest to create the territory. Great powers seek to build a world for other states to inhabit, while keeping the ability to change the rules or the state of the world when necessary. At a moment when the old concepts no longer work, this book aims to introduce a radically new theory of world politics and technology.

Die Welt, die Europa im 19. Jahrhundert geschaffen hat, ist zu einer Welt geworden, die der Westen nicht mehr allein zu beherrschen vermag. Dem Abstieg des Westens folgt der Aufstieg all jener, die einst von europäischen Mächten überwältigt wurden. Längst lassen sich Staaten wie Indien, Südafrika, Brasilien, Indonesien und Saudi-Arabien nicht mehr auf die hinteren Plätze verweisen. In China finden sie eine mächtige wirtschaftspolitische Alternative. Den USA ist der chinesische Aufstieg längst unheimlich geworden. Die Rede ist von einem neuen Kalten Krieg.

The Second World War was the most destructive conflict in history. It left Europe in ruins, its economies severely damaged and millions of its people facing malnutrition, its political systems shaken if not destroyed. Yet three decades later its economies had recovered; it largely appeared politically stable; its inhabitants generally were well housed and well fed. Then at the end of the 1980s, the postwar settlement disintegrated, and a new chapter in Europe's postwar history had begun.
