Practical information
Marking the publication of the Summer 2015 (No. 4) issue of the journal Horizons – Journal of International Relations and Sustainable Development with the dossier "The Return of China".
« Chinese socio-economic transformation has caused much domestic commotion. It has also been met with anxiety by some other centers of power, including those in China’s neighborhood. Beijing has sought to adress these issues by adopting a « new normal » growth model at home, whilst launching grand international initiatives such as the « One Belt, One Road » and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. The fate of these endeavours will decisively bear upon the strategic trajectory of Asia and beyond », in Horizons, n°4, 2015

Europe in turbulence: navigating a new world order without the United States?
The foundations of the post-1945 international order, long anchored by U.S. leadership, are shifting. Amid intensifying geopolitical rivalry, democratic backsliding, and strategic fatigue in Washington, the question arises: what if the United States no longer plays its pivotal role in international security? Simultaneously, the Global South is asserting new political and economic agency, complicating the old binaries of West vs. Rest. For Europe, this landscape is both a challenge and an inflection point.
The future of space cooperation in the new strategic context
The policy orientations of the Trump II administration profoundly challenge the foundations of international cooperation in space science and exploration. This shift reflects a broader trend of strategic disengagement and weakening of multilateral mechanisms in the space domain.
