The 2018–2019 Report Card on International Cooperation (CFR)
How did world leaders do in managing global challenges in 2018? Experts from twenty-eight think tanks around the world grade international cooperation a middling C.
May 14, 2019
by Terrence Mullan, assistant director for International Institutions and Global Governance at the Council on Foreign Relations.
Great power tensions continue to crescendo. Economic inequality and backlash against globalization fuel nationalist, populist, and protectionist forces in many nations. Multilateralism remains gridlocked. The world muddles along, crisis looming on the horizon.
That was the message of the Report Card on International Cooperation 2018-2019, which awarded a gentleman’s C to international efforts to solve the world’s most pressing challenges in 2018. This grade was an increase over the previous year’s C– and marked the first time the grade has increased since the survey began. Also for the first year, the Report Card identified an environmental issue—the struggle against climate change—as the top priority for world leaders in the coming year. Continue leyendo →

ADESyD (Seguridad y Defensa) Boletín 109
Estimados soci@s y amig@s de ADESyD:
Tras la elecciones generales del pasado 28 de abril y en la antesala de una nueva cita electoral con elecciones municipales, autonómicas y europeas el próximo 26 de mayo, se abre un nuevo periodo en la democracia española y en el devenir de Europa como consecuencia de la invocación del Artículo 50 del Tratado de la Unión Europea por parte del Reino Unido para su salida de la UE, aún sin culminar, y que demuestra que el proyecto de construcción europeo no es irrevocable.
No cabe duda de que la UE ha sido motor de cambio y progreso en lo económico, en lo político y en lo social de nuestros pueblos, a pesar de la crisis vivida de los últimos años. Una España integrada en la UE no solo le ha permitido superar importantes retos, sino también aportar al conjunto de las políticas de la Unión su compromiso con los valores que nos unen, especialmente en el campo de la seguridad y defensa, en un escenario internacional globalizado e incierto.
En este contexto, la labor de líderes como D. Alberto Pérez Rubalcaba, que defendió la unidad como principio para superar adversidades – principalmente la lacra del terrorismo- y la cooperación internacional como herramienta para lograrlo, debe permanecer en la memoria colectiva de los españoles. Descanse en Paz.
En esta línea, ADESyD seguirá favoreciendo el diálogo, la cooperación, la tolerancia y el respeto en sus actividades académicas y sus publicaciones. Entre ellas, destacamos la presentación de las Actas del V Congreso ADESyD “Compartiendo (visiones de) Seguridad”, el próximo 4 de junio en el CESEDEN, y la celebración de un Debate sobre “La Seguridad y la Defensa en la XIII Legislatura”. ¡#SeguimosSumando!
Si vis pacem et securitatem, defende

Media Polarization «à la française»?
In France, representative democracy is experiencing a growing mistrust that also affects the media. The latter are facing major simultaneous challenges:
- a disruption of their business model in the digital age;
- a dependence on social networks and search engines to gain visibility;
- increased competition due to the convergence of content on digital media (competition between text, video and audio on the Internet);
- increased competition due to the emergence of actors exercising their influence independently from the media (politicians, bloggers, comedians, etc.).
In the United States, these developments have contributed to the polarization of the public square, characterized by the radicalization of the conservative press, with significant impact on electoral processes.
Institut Montaigne investigated whether a similar phenomenon was at work in France. To this end, it led an in-depth study in partnership with the Sciences Po Médialab, the Sciences Po School of Journalism as well as the MIT Center for Civic Media. It also benefited from data collected and analyzed by the Pew Research Center*, in their report News Media Attitudes in France.
