"The European project is not a dream, but a hope. It is rooted in rationality, which is not the case with dreams. We Europeans have seen our dreams end in nightmares too often not to be suspicious."

"The strength of a network is judged at the information level of the weakest link, or more precisely the link furthest from the centre of the network."

Depuis le lancement du GEAB en 2006, notre équipe place au cœur de la crise systémique globale l’émergence du monde multipolaire. Les effets du processus de relativisation de la puissance américaine ont constitué les premiers signes visibles d’une vaste reconfiguration globale. Dès 2009, avec la constitution du club des BRIC(S), les nouveaux acteurs ont commencé à s’imposer de manière organisée sur la scène internationale, commençant en effet à donner corps à cette notion de monde multipolaire….
