À Pékin, les "Deux Sessions" se terminent cette semaine. Cet événement important de la gouvernance démocratique de la Chine pour les années à venir est scruté scrupuleusement par les décideurs politiques et les investisseurs du monde entier, surtout cette année car y sera adopté le XVe Plan quinquennal qui débute en 2026.

Mme XU Li, journaliste de la chaîne CGTN Français nous en dresse ici un compte-rendu synthétique qui précise les objectifs, les orientations et les priorités en matière de croissance, d'inflation, de secteurs prioritaires et de moyens.

Le chercheur chinois Zhang Weiwei affirme que l'une des plus grandes idées fausses en Occident est de croire que la Chine possède une économie communiste classique. En réalité, explique-t-il, le pays fonctionne selon une économie de marché socialiste, où l'État contrôle les secteurs stratégiques tandis que le marché favorise une concurrence commerciale intense.

La question oubliée

par Isaac Bickerstaff

Après avoir exploré les élites, leurs parcours, leurs réseaux, leurs stratégies communicationnelles, leurs références religieuses, leurs mécanismes d'emprise, après avoir analysé la place que le système politique assigne au peuple (objet électoral, force productive, faire-valoir, problème à gérer), après avoir montré comment les élites vivent dans un monde parallèle qui les coupe des réalités populaires, il est temps de poser la question la plus simple, et pourtant la plus constamment éludée : que veut le peuple ?

Depuis quelques années, un terme revient souvent dans l'actualité économique : dédollarisation. Cette dynamique remet en question la suprématie du dollar comme devise dominante et s'accompagne d'évolutions majeures vers des monnaies numériques. Beaucoup se demandent si les crypto-actifs ou les monnaies numériques de banque centrale pourraient bouleverser le système international et instaurer un véritable nouvel ordre monétaire.

Brigitte Challande, 10 mars 2026. Gaza fait de nouveau face au spectre de la faim. Entre le feu du blocus et les tables de l'aide humanitaire, 8-10 mars.

"La scène dans la bande de Gaza n'est plus ce qu'elle était. La guerre qui a commencé dans la région, opposant Israël et les États-Unis d'un côté à l'Iran de l'autre, n'a pas limité ses effets aux lignes de confrontation directes.

For centuries, modern nations had generally conducted their wars in rather gentlemanly fashion, usually making efforts to comply with all the laws and international treaties regulating such conflicts.

A war might often begin with a downcast ambassador delivering a diplomatic note to the accredited government, informing its political leadership that unless certain crucial demands were immediately met, a state of war should be assumed to exist by noon the following day.

For years the climate debate has been presented to the public as a dispute over science, emissions targets, and environmental policy. But something much larger has been quietly taking shape behind the scenes.

The real transformation is not occurring in environmental ministries or international climate conferences. It is occurring inside the global financial system.

Young Patriotic Americans volunteer to serve in the United States Military, subjecting themselves to possible death and guaranteeing poverty to the citizens. In the last 80 years, 105,000 of our military were killed, which is one from every 800 families. The generals lost every war, and all wars were for the profit of traitors, not for National Security.

When a young person joins the military, they are controlled by hormones and propaganda; their parents are mostly ignorant and apathetic.

Whilst the once-great "Free World" countries have deteriorated into increasingly socialist and/or fascist police states, other parts of the world have either remained static or have become more free, with greater opportunity than before.

Some readers have written in to us describing their successful exits from such countries and describing how rewarding their new lives are in their new countries.

The US President in speeches or interview, when asked about respect for international laws, says openly, "I don't care, I'm above the law, I can do whatever I want," and he literally does whatever he wants. See Venezuela and now Iran, and so much more.

The same President tells Iran, which considers Mojtaba Khameneni, the assassinated Supreme Leader's son, as potentially becoming his father's successor (supported by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps - IRGC) - "I will nominate your next Supreme Leader, not you."

The Republican-controlled House and Senate rejected a war powers vote that would have granted Congress the ability to decide whether Trump could continue serving Israel's conflict with Iran.

Apparently 77% of Republicans have fallen for the propaganda that Iran is a terrorist state developing nuclear weapons. The same Republicans fell for 9/11, Saddam Hussein's "weapons of mass destruction," Assad's "use chemical weapons," Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Gulf of Tonkin, the endless lies about Gaddafi.

Every model that is incapable of recognizing its own failure has already crossed the event horizon into model collapse.

Let's start by stipulating I am addressing commentary on the war, not the war. As I noted in my post The War (March 1, 2026), war takes lives; it is not a chess game or an abstraction.

Commentary, as I noted in Perverse Incentives Have Created a Runaway Media Monster, is all about making money via clicks / "engagement." Exaggerating claims of expertise / certainty and touting predictions all activate "engagement," even when the claims are false and the predictions are nothing more than click-bait.

He hopes to prove Ukraine's worth in defending against Iranian drones so that NATO's Eastern Flank then agrees to his earlier proposal for swapping some US troops with Ukrainian ones to defend against Russian drones as the quid pro quo for the bloc deploying troops to Ukraine after the conflict ends.

Zelensky confirmed in an interview with the New York Times that he dispatched Ukrainian drone experts and interceptor drones to protect US bases in Jordan upon the US' request.

According to- www.fightfoodcrises.net: This Global Report on Food Crises is another unflinching indictment of a world dangerously off course.

Hunger is not an emergency confined to certain pockets of the world or periods of time. It is fast becoming a scar etched into the lives of millions around the globe. Fueled by conflict, geopolitical tensions, climate chaos, environmental vulnerabilities, and economic upheaval, food and nutrition crises define the lives of millions- not for weeks or months, but for years and even lifetimes.
