The Chinese world empire: a thwarted ambition?
ANALYSE LONG FORMAT, Clément Guntern | Malgré une image conquérante et de vastes ambitions, le projet d’empire-monde chinois risque bien de se heurter à de nombreux obstacles. Corruption, vieillissement de la population, baisse de la croissance... Voici les raisons pour lesquelles la route n’est de loin pas encore dégagée pour Pékin.
Towards a Chinese century
In an unprecedented upheaval in human history, entire regions that had been synonymous with poverty and political chaos have emerged on the world stage. However, the West, which is largely responsible for this recent success, does not yet seem to have integrated the new global order: in the near future, it will no longer be the center of the world.
Burma: the fear of a failed state
ARTICLE LONG FORMAT, Clément Guntern | Alors que des élections législatives venaient de se tenir, l’armée birmane a surpris le monde entier en reprenant le pouvoir par la force. Après seulement deux mois de protestation, l’Etat birman risque de devenir un Etat failli de plus; avec son lot de conséquences dans une région qui gagne en centralité.
Towards an alliance of democracies
ARTICLE LONG FORMAT, Clément Guntern | At the start of this new century, a new order is gradually taking hold: authoritarianism around the world is gaining in power, and the states claiming to be authoritarian are asserting themselves with increasing brutality. Russia and China are raising their voices and threatening reprisals against anyone who dares to criticize the state of democratic principles and human rights on their territory. While escalation with Russia remains measured, China is agitating, vituperating and sanctioning. For the time being, it is mainly on their own territories that these states are committing more and more crimes, but for powers with global ambitions, it is to be feared that this is an exportable model of governance. Democratic principles are now under direct threat. As a result, democratic states have a duty to respond firmly to authoritarian forces, while leaving the door open to collaboration.
