WATCH POINT N ° 5

March 31, 2006 - Paris - Cité Internationale Universitaire - 9 a.m. - 14 p.m.

Globalization: big bang or big crunch?

Is globalization a dynamic of infinite, irreversible, big bang expansion?
Isn't reverse dynamics, contraction, big crunch, also possible? One thing is certain, for many analysts, we are at a potential tipping point,
both for economic, geostrategic, energy and, quite simply, human reasons.
If this rocking movement must occur, will it be slow or brutal? Will its dynamics be controllable or managed by reactive logic? What world will he lead us to?

In order to answer these different questions, International Focus, in its usual spirit of cross-disciplinarity and perspectives, made a point of combining the insights of economics, geopolitics with those of anthropology and psychoanalysis applied to the phenomena of society.

This fifth International Focus Watch Point should be of interest to, among others, all those whose business sector is international development, international communication, human resources.

λ Jacques Sapir, director of studies at EHESS, director of CEMI
