Europe in the Age of Insecurity...

Alessandro Colombo, Paolo Magri

The international system is going through a phase of heightened disorder. Russia's invasion of Ukraine in early 2022, and the Israel-Hamas conflict in late 2023 have shown that the current crisis of the international order is being increasingly militarized. Facing wars and instability closer to home, and a rise in big-power competition, Europe is feeling less and less "secure".
This year's ISPI Report unpacks the different dimensions of the current "Age of Insecurity", looking into its political, economic, and demographic facets. It shows how different actors in the international system tackle such insecurity (while also contributing to create more), with a focus on the United States, China, Russia, India and the "Global South", and the main protagonists of the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.
It finally zooms in on Europe, looking for viable options that could help the continent better face these rising political, economic, and demographic insecurities.

Destiny of Liberty

Mwanandeke Kindembo

In this book, author Mwanandeke Kindembo presented the reader with his manifesto, or a shared reality that exemplifies his ultimate mission. Which is based on finding within himself the motivation, or the correct vision to improve the world around him. He showed us the geography of his passions and how he is ready to step in to lead people to the promised land of liberty. The author delved into his own hidden agendas to find a more realistic worldview based on direct experience, rather than imaginary subjects. He placed more emphasis on land reform, the history of the D.R.Congo, the social and cultural influence, economic and political struggles of Africa. The book is filled with drastic, yet beautiful transformations that will change the course of the lives of many. Change for the better, thereby enabling citizens to live according to their fullest desires and potentials. The author has demonstrated an ideal view that will progress over time to developing his own unique understanding of his process, rather than relying on socially accepted belief systems.
Dedication (in the author's own words): I want to take this precious time to dedicate this book to my continent mama Africa, and especially to my compatriots in the Democratic Republic of Congo and any believer in the destiny of liberty. I am truly one of you. I come to you in the name of peace and love. Oh Africa! My love for you will never cease or end until I see that day that you get your full freedom; with your children. I ask this in the name of democracy and all the attributes that are associated with the redemption and freedom of nations.
