Jeremy Stone has broken the ...

Not since the modern liberal order was born in the 1940s has the world had to grapple with the possibility of its demise, at the hand of a rising China. Just at a time when the world is in need of the stability and governance it has had the luxury of relying upon for decades, it must contemplate transitioning to a world order not of the West’s choosing. If the era of US hegemony is coming to an end, will the global institutions it was so instrumental in creating become less relevant and forceful with time?

On full display in this expose, the Chinese Communist plan of subverting America is well underway, aided by the Deep State. Will Americans wake up in time to realize it before the tipping point?

Trump, la Brexit, i risultati delle elezioni in molti paesi europei, la Turchia di Erdogan, l'India di Modi: prendono forza a livello globale tendenze che paiono sancire il divorzio fra la democrazia e i principi liberali che l'hanno innervata, soprattutto in Occidente. Eppure viviamo in un mondo che non vede affatto, come si crede, un peggioramento socioeconomico o un aumento delle diseguaglianze.

The world was last designed 75 years ago, about the same time that Sam Pitroda was born. This design has outlived its utility. Hyperconnectivity and the COVID-19 pandemic offer a unique opportunity to redesign the world to take humanity to the next level.

Oggi in Europa viviamo in società sempre più disomogenee. Le tensioni e i conflitti etnici, religiosi e culturali che attraversano centri e periferie impongono la ricerca di nuove forme di convivenza. Secondo Cinzia Sciuto, la strada da percorrere per una società capace di tenere insieme disomogeneità culturale e diritti delle persone è quella di una visione etica e politica radicalmente laica. Ma che cosa significa essere laici?

Somos um país urbano: 84% da população brasileira concentra-se em cidades e ao menos metade vive em municípios com mais de 100 mil habitantes. Mas a vida urbana não traz apenas novas oportunidades. Ela propicia doenças provocadas por falta de saneamento, picadas de mosquitos, poluição, violência, ritmo frenético... E tudo isso não ocorre mais apenas nas grandes cidades, mas também nas médias e mesmo pequenas, quase sempre negligenciadas pelo poder público e pelos próprios cidadãos.

Digitalisierung ist wichtig und alle machen mit. Doch in der Praxis bleiben die Ergebnisse weit hinter den Erwartungen zurück.

Im mexikanischen Grenzland zu den USA ist sauberes Trinkwasser so knapp, dass Mütter ihren Babys zum Trinken Coca-Cola und Pepsi geben - das Problem der Wasserverknappung betrifft immer mehr Menschen direkt und breitet sich in rasantem Tempo auf der ganzen Erde aus.
