Abstract

In his third book, David Kilcullen takes us out of the mountains: away from the remote, rural guerrilla warfare of Afghanistan, and into the marginalised slums and complex security threats of the world's coastal cities, where almost 75 per cent of us will be living by mid-century. Scrutinising major environmental trends - population growth, coastal urbanisation - and increasing digital connectivity he projects a future of feral cities, urban systems under stress, and increasing overlaps between crime and war, internal and external threats, and the real and virtual worlds.

Abstract

Les médias peuvent-ils être neutres lorsqu’ils couvrent un conflit ? Les journalistes sont-ils de simples observateurs ou des acteurs à part entière des crises politiques et des affrontements armés qu’ils relatent ? Cet ouvrage propose tout d’abord un point sur le rôle des médias dans les conflits armés et dans la construction de la paix. Ensuite, il présente les expériences de neuf pays et analyse les contraintes rencontrées par les journalistes locaux dans une région fortement déstabilisée. L’étude se termine par une réflexion sur la couverture des crises africaines par les médias du Nord.

Abstract

How do a few Third World political movements become global causes célèbres, while most remain isolated? This book rejects dominant views that needy groups readily gain help from selfless nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). Instead, they face a Darwinian struggle for scarce resources where support goes to the savviest, not the neediest. Examining Mexico's Zapatista rebels and Nigeria's Ogoni ethnic group, the book draws critical conclusions about social movements, NGOs, and 'global civil society'.
