Throughout the post-Mao reform era, China has championed the principle of sovereign state control, which holds that states should not intervene in the affairs of other states. Yet, as Tim Nicholas Rühlig argues in China's Foreign Policy Contradictions, in recent years they have not actually acted this way. Chinese foreign policy actions fail to match up with official rhetoric, and these inconsistencies - in combination with China's growing power - will have dramatic effects on the future shape of international order.

We owe it to our fellow humans - and other species - to save them from the catastrophic harm caused by climate change. Philosopher Elizabeth Cripps approaches climate justice not just as an abstract idea but as something that should motivate us all. Using clear reasoning and poignant examples, starting from irrefutable science and uncontroversial moral rules, she explores our obligations to each other and to the non-human world, unravels the legacy of colonialism and entrenched racism, and makes the case for immediate action.

So viel Geopolitik war noch nie, so viel Nachhaltigkeit war noch nie, so viel Technologie war noch nie - Entscheidungsträger in Politik und Unternehmen müssen sich mit neuen globalen Dynamiken auseinandersetzen, um die Wirtschaft wetterfest zu machen gegenüber internationalen Spannungen, fortschreitendendem Klimawandel, gesellschaftlichen Erwartungen und rasanten Innovationszyklen. Katrin Suder und Jan F. Kallmorgen schildern die komplexen politischen Zusammenhänge und geben praktische Handlungsempfehlungen, um die neuen Risiken der 2020er Jahre vorausschauend zu managen.

As the Cold War faded into history, it appeared to have been replaced by a new conflict—between Islam and the West. Or so we are told. After the events of 9/11 and the advent of the 'war on terror', this narrative seemed prophetic. But, as Peter Oborne reveals in this masterful new analysis, the concept of an existential clash between the two is a dangerous and destructive fantasy.

The United States national-security establishment is vast, yet the United States has failed to meet its initial objectives in almost every one of its major, post-World War II conflicts. Of these troubled efforts, the US wars in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan stand out for their endurance, resource investment, human cost, and miscalculated decisions. In Planning to Fail, James H. Lebovic argues that a profound myopia helps explain US decision-making failures. In each of the wars explored in this book, he identifies four stages of intervention.

Tras el éxito de Camisas azules, manos negras (caso Oceanografía) y El cártel negro, Ana Lilia Pérez regresa con el que tal vez sea el trabajo más ambicioso de su carrera: Mares de cocaína, una estremecedora investigación acerca del tráfico de drogas que se lleva a cabo en cientos de rutas náuticas a escala internacional, donde incluso algunos cárteles mexicanos ya han impuesto el pago de piso.

In this incisive audiobook, Peter Hartcher reveals how decades of economic dependence left Australia open to the strategic ambitions of the most successful authoritarian regime in modern history. He shows how ideology, paranoia and Xi Jinping’s personal story have reshaped China and shines new light on Beijing’s overt and covert campaign for influence - over trade and defence, media and politics.

Alle kan huske, dengang Donald Trump ville købe Grønland. Præsidenten for verdens mest magtfulde nation tilbød at købe hele Grønland, inklusive de 56.000 børn, mænd og kvinder. Men hvad lå der bag det overrumplende købstilbud?

Voilà deux siècles que la civilisation industrielle libère les hommes de la misère. Mais les apôtres de l'écologie radicale accusent les sociétés modernes d'avoir acheté leur confort au détriment de l'environnement, quitte à dépeindre le passé comme le paradis perdu qu'il n'a jamais été.

"Questo libro è un viaggio nel grande paradosso di una sfida planetaria. Vi racconto una faccia della Cina troppo nascosta e inquietante, che l'élite occidentale ha deciso di non vedere. Rivelo il gioco dei corsi e ricorsi, tra due superpotenze che si studiano e si copiano a vicenda. E spiego il Nuovo Grande Esperimento Americano, che tenta di invertire il corso della storia prima che sia troppo tardi." Federico Rampini racconta una sfida fatta anche di contaminazione reciproca, perché alcuni problemi sono simili.

This revealing memoir from a 34-year veteran of the CIA who worked as a case officer and recruiter of foreign agents before and after 9/11 provides an invaluable perspective on the state of modern spy craft, how the CIA has developed, and how it must continue to evolve. If you've ever wondered...

De Saint-Germain-des-Prés aux chaînes d'info en continu, l'intellectuel français est auréolé d'un pouvoir singulier. Défenseur des opprimés ou décrypteur de l'actualité, militant des causes perdues ou expert au discours ciselé, il occupe, au pays de Descartes, où l'on aime à théoriser, une place à part. Crise financière, attentats islamistes, poussée migratoire, montée des populismes, féminismes, épidémie... L'histoire est de retour, les idées gouvernent de nouveau le monde.

"Nella mia vita di nomade non ho mai smesso la ricerca di radici. Immaginarie, costruite, conquistate. Ma indispensabili." Le austere memorie di Genova, le atmosfere nordiche di Bruxelles e le sorprese di Parigi, l'iniziazione all'Oriente in Indonesia, poi verso Ovest a respirare l'aria decadente di New York, lo spaesamento di San Francisco, a riscoprire un'armonia celeste di Pechino, i bambini del Sichuan, le case a fior d'acqua del Kerala, il destino marittimo di Tokyo, le sorgenti del Nilo... Tre oceani e quattro continenti.

A trent'anni dalla fine della guerra fredda, l'equilibrio mondiale non e mai stato così a rischio. Il presidente degli Stati Uniti si è ritirato dal trattato di disarmo con la Russia e ha abbandonato unilateralmente l'accordo sul nucleare iraniano, l'Europa pesa sempre meno sullo scacchiere internazionale e rischia di disintegrarsi, la Cina prende sempre più spazio e, a causa dell'epidemia di Covid-19, una crisi economica e sanitaria senza precedenti si è abbattuta su tutto il mondo.

Pendant ce temps, sur les antiques Routes de la Soie souffle un vent d'espoir.

Chinas Aufstieg fasziniert die Welt - und lehrt sie das Fürchten. Unter Parteichef Xi Jinping erlebt das Land einen Rückfall in die Diktatur.
