Book Description
"The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic marks the most significant, singular global disruption since World War II, with health, economic, political, and security implications that will ripple for years to come." -Global Trends 2040 (2021) Global Trends 2040-A More Contested World (2021), released by the US National Intelligence Council, is the latest report in its series of reports starting in 1997 about megatrends and the world's future. This report, strongly influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic, paints a bleak picture of the future and describes a contested, fragmented and turbulent world. It specifically discusses the four main trends that will shape tomorrow's world: - Demographics-by 2040, 1.4 billion people will be added mostly in Africa and South Asia. - Economics-increased government debt and concentrated economic power will escalate problems for the poor and middleclass. - Climate-a hotter world will increase water, food, and health insecurity. - Technology-the emergence of new technologies could both solve and cause problems for human life. Students of trends, policymakers, entrepreneurs, academics, journalists and anyone eager for a glimpse into the next decades, will find this report, with colored graphs, essential reading.

Book Description
Most refugees are human rights violations made visible. Stepping on unchartered ground, with little theoretical work done on the subject, this study provides rather an empirical analysis than a theoretical framework for practical steps. The analysis tackles modern refugee problems and the challenge on how to prevent the rise of new refugee situations. It focuses on how to change situations in which refugees are exploited as a weapon in political strife. In order to forestall the violation of individual human rights, the thesis proposes collective measures that are directed exclusively to prevent refugee situations from arising, and not to prevent persecuted individuals from seeking protection elsewhere. Considering the developments in international relations inspired by Glasnost and Perestroika, and the growing importance of human rights caused by the codification of human right principles and the 1975 Final Act of Helsinki, the study challenges traditional models of international interaction and non-intervention with reference to refugee producing situations.
