Four Megatrends Pointing Toward an AOC Presidency in 2028 argues that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not the story —history is. The book identifies four forces converging to create the conditions for a new political era. First, the fifty-year Reagan era of deregulation, tax cuts, and market-first economics is reaching its limits, much as the New Deal era eventually gave way to Reagan. Second, history shows that systems must reform or risk decline; America faces growing pressure to adapt to inequality, housing shortages, healthcare costs, and declining economic mobility.

Au moment où la montée vertigineuse du prix des hydrocarbures et le renchérissement des matières premières suscite déjà au Sud des émeutes de la faim, menaçant au Nord des professions entières, remettant en cause des modes de vie, voici qu'un péril plus angoissant commence à faire parler de lui : le problème de l'eau. Dans dix ans, dans vingt ans, aurons-nous assez d'eau ? Assez d'eau pour éviter qu'à toutes les raisons de faire la guerre s'ajoute celle du manque d'eau ?

To testify against the Russian Interior Ministry officials involved in a conspiracy to steal $230 million in taxes. Magnitsky’s brutal killing has remained uninvestigated to this day.

The Russian Revolution of 1917 was one of the most cataclysmic events in world history, profoundly shaping politics, international relations, social patterns, economics and science in the century that followed. It created long-lasting aftershocks which travelled far beyond its geographical borders. How did it happen? What were the sequence of events that led, following the shocking upheaval of the old Romanov order, to a fierce and violent rivalry between a variety of revolutionary factions and the ultimate victory of the Bolsheviks?

The monstrous act of terrorism has caused many a grief that they have had to live with throughout their lives. To terrorism, many have lost loved ones, many have had their innocence ripped apart and even faced the harshest brutality that no one would ever believe humans have the capacity to commit. One wonders and many questions then begin to clog the mind as to whether terrorists really do have conscience and whether their happiness is hinged on the grave atrocities they commit on a daily basis.

Über das letzte Jahrhundert hinweg hat sich die Menschheit Hunger, Seuchen und Kriegen erfolgreich gestellt. Aus Erfolg wird Ehrgeiz: als nächstes stehen Unsterblichkeit, grenzenloses Glück und gottgleiche Schöpfungskräfte auf der To-Do-Liste. Die Verfolgung dieser Ziele wird die meisten Menschen allerdings überflüssig machen. Also bleiben Fragen: Wohin führt unser Weg? Wie können wir unsere Zukunft bestmöglich beeinflussen?

On en était où ? Ah oui. On fonçait vers le gouffre, à vitesse accélérée. La calotte glaciaire fondait, les ours polaires se noyaient, le Mont-Blanc reculait, les oiseaux ne se cachaient même plus pour mourir.

Cette “Histoire générale de la Chine” (Tome 1), d’Henri Cordier, offre une entrée magistrale dans la longue durée chinoise: elle démonte les mythes d’origines (influences égyptiennes, chaldéennes ou indiennes) et expose avec rigueur les débats savants sur la préhistoire, la langue et l’écriture, pour mieux situer la Chine dans l’histoire universelle sans la réduire à des fables ou à un isolement immuable.

En devenant chargée de mission, Zoé Shepard pense avoir trouvé un travail: grossière erreur ! Plongée dans une ambiance de cour de récréation, elle oscille entre fous rires nerveux et consternation.

Napoléon Bonaparte : un des plus grands leaders n'ayant jamais existé. Un essor irrépressible le mena de l'école militaire au trône d'Empereur des Français, puis à la conquête de l'Europe, avant la défaite de 1815. Objet d'une légende dorée comme d'une légende noire, exemple d'une volonté de fer et stratège de génie, Napoléon a changé le cours de l'Histoire. On étudie ses campagnes dans toutes les écoles de stratégie, sa politique libérale a eu une influence mondiale, et il reste une des figures les plus controversées de l'Occident.

Avec la naissance de l'Etat, 3000 ans avant notre ère, l'espace géographique acquiert une dimension politique. Désormais, l'espace n'est plus seulement façonné et cloisonné par la diversité du milieu naturel et par celle du peuplement, mais aussi par l'exercice de souverainetés étatiques concurrentes. Il devient le théâtre et l'enjeu de rivalités pour le contrôle de voies stratégiques, de ressources vitales, mais aussi de territoires ou de lieux symboliques.

'All roads used to lead to Rome. Today, they lead to Beijing.' When The Silk Roads was published in 2015, it became an instant classic. A major reassessment of world history, it compelled us to look at the past from a different perspective. The New Silk Roads brings this story up to date, addressing the present and future of a world that is changing dramatically. Following the Silk Roads eastwards, from Europe through to China, by way of Russia and the Middle East, The New Silk Roads provides a timely reminder that we live in a world that is profoundly interconnected.

Once described by Mao Zedong as a "needle inside a ball of cotton", Deng was the pragmatic yet disciplined driving force behind China's radical transformation in the late 20th century. He confronted the damage wrought by the Cultural Revolution, dissolved Mao's cult of personality, and loosened the policies that had stunted China's growth. Obsessed with modernization, Deng opened trade relations with the West, which lifted hundreds of millions out of poverty. Yet he also answered to his authoritarian roots, most notably when he ordered the crackdown in 1989 at Tiananmen Square.
