BY INVITATION
At the end of 2007 / begining of 2008, many "food riots" burst in several regions in the world. Sub-saharian Africa was particularly concerned. These anger manifestations, which were not only motived by the food issue, had the merit to draw the medias' attention to the more and more worrying problems of the African agricultures and the households' growing difficulty to eat. After the fallout of the major cereals rates on the world markets, these issues were forgotten. But no structural problem has been solved yet.

Reinventing Coordination in an Age of Fragmentation
The world economy is being reordered. The certainties of the post-Cold War era, open trade, dollar centrality, predictable multilateral coordination, are giving way to a landscape shaped by rivalry between the United States and China, the weaponization of interdependence, and a scramble to secure supply chains, technologies and critical resources. What once looked like a stable architecture now appears fragile, contested, and in places actively being dismantled.
