"This book is a collection of papers presented at the NATO ASI conference Transdisciplinary Information Sharing for Decision-Making against Biological Threats." "Traditionally, it has been natural disasters and industrial accidents which have posed the greatest threat to society, but increasingly, chemical, biological. radiological, nuclear and explosive (CBRNE) emergencies present new challenges, with the potential to become global threats on an unprecedented scale. This has led to calls for the international community to implement a 'new way of thinking' to enable better communication worldwide to counter the threat of global terrorism. A successful counter terrorism strategy requires cooperation between agencies traditionally reluctant to share information: governments, industry, the scientific community and civil society in general. The body of knowledge and experience being developed in this field is now so immense that a new information sharing paradigm is required for these various disciplines in different societies to properly understand each other." "The key obstacle to any scientific, technical or social process is inefficient or non-existent information sharing. This work is of interest to anyone involved in the mitigation, preparedness, response to or recovery from disasters of any kind. Highlighting strategic enablers such as cross-disciplinary information sharing, international outreach and partner activities, public diplomacy and strategic communication, it is a robust step towards a new era of genuine cross-silo information sharing and cooperation in an atmosphere of trust." --Book Jacket.

Partendo dalle prime idee sullo sviluppo economico degli anni Quaranta, l'autore traccia una rassegna delle teorie, evidenziando come queste hanno influenzato le politiche e come sono venute modificandosi nel tempo secondo la percezione dei loro successi e fallimenti. Negli ultimi capitoli del volume vengono invece messi in luce i temi che sono stati centrali nei vari periodi: la crisi del debito (anni '80), la pianificazione e il mercato (fine anni '80), i problemi dell'ambiente e lo sviluppo sostenibile (anni '90). Nel corso del testo vengono presentati casi-studio tra cui Taiwan, Egitto, Corea del Sud, Tanzania, Cuba, Brasile, Cina, che fornisce il materiale empirico per l'analisi dell'autore.

Il Giappone ha risposto al ritorno della Cina sulla scena mondiale con una diplomazia nuova e più assertiva. La ritrovata centralità geoeconomica e geopolitica di Pechino ha agito da catalizzatore, accelerando il processo di ridefinizione della diplomazia nipponica, iniziato dopo la fine della Guerra fredda. Quale sarà l'esito di questo processo? Quali effetti avrà sul ruolo economico globale del Giappone, che è tuttora la seconda economia del mondo? In che direzione evolveranno le relazioni tra Cina e Giappone? Il futuro della regione asiatica è quello prefigurato dallo storico vertice trilaterale Giappone-Cina-Corea del Sud, tenutosi a Fukuoka nel 2008? Oppure sarà pesantemente condizionato dalle irrisolte criticità lasciate in eredità dalla Guerra fredda? Noemi Lanna cerca di rispondere a queste domande, inquadrando gli scenari regionali attuali nel più ampio contesto della millenaria storia asiatica.

All'interno dei processi di integrazione globale oggi in corso - anche in considerazione dei risvolti di ordine e disordine ad essi collegati - le radici mediterranee della cultura europea sono di vitale importanza. In questo volume vengono pensate come il possibile fondamento di una identità civile e politica dell'Europa unita, che ne faccia un attore centrale nel quadro degli equilibri e delle strategie globali. Il dialogo fra le due sponde potrebbe offrire la chiave per un'alternativa all'universalismo "oceanico", e quindi per un riscatto sia dell'Europa che del mondo islamico dall'attuale soggezione all'egemonia culturale, politica e militare dell'impero atlantico. Ciò potrebbe avere effetti di pacificazione ben oltre le sponde mediterranee.
