  "I'm here to put the internationals in order. I'm in charge here. Too many people showed up at the center and they had no business being there.” These are the words of an American instructor, met by Régis Le Sommier at the beginning of the war when all the media was minimizing the role of the United States in Ukraine.
  Régis Le Sommier is the only war reporter to have gone to both sides of the front line with the Ukrainian and Russian armies for a year. He worked for Paris-Match for 30 years and received several awards for his journalism. Odessa, Kherson, Zaporizhia, Mariupol, Donetsk, Lugansk, Donbass and Bakhmut—are all war zones where the journalist has captured the truth of the reality on the ground. This is a raw book, a book from the level of the men, far from the hazy analyses of armchair specialists.

  In today's tumultuous and fast-changing times, digitalisation and technology are game changers in a wide range of sectors and have a tremendous impact on infrastructure. Roads, railways, electricity grids, aviation, and maritime transport are deeply affected by the digital
  and technological transition, with gains in terms of competitiveness, cost-reduction, and safety. Digitalisation is also a key tool for fostering global commitment towards sustainability, but the race for digital infrastructure is also a geopolitical one. As the world's largest economies are starting to adopt competitive strategies, a level playing field appears far from being agreed upon.
  Why are digitalisation and technology the core domains of global geopolitical competition? How are they changing the way infrastructure is built, operated, and maintained? To what extent will road, rail, air, and maritime transport change by virtue of digitalisation, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things? How to enhance cyber protection for critical infrastructure? What are the EU's, US' and China's
  digital strategies?

  The Radical Imagination of Black...

  Including interviews with Black women holding political office at the national, state, and local levels, as well as focus group data, The Radical Imagination of Black Women challenges political science's current approach to political ambition by exploring how Black women decide to seek political office. Pearl K. Ford Dowe argues that ambition for Black women cannot be measured only by political candidacies and ascents of the political chain of power. Black women are uniquely positioned within their communities to influence politics and public policy, which stems from unique variables of socialization, gender and racial identity, and marginalization that shape the political attitudes of Black women. Thus, Dowe asserts that Black women's political ambition often manifests outside formal politics, in activism and community building, a process that is linked to a wider radical vision for a full democracy. This is ambition that occurs in a specific context of marginalization, and both motivation and the conditions surrounding such motivation are critical to understanding the full range of Black women's political work. By focusing on Black women's experiences in elite politics, The Radical Imagination of Black Women is a much-needed intervention in the literature on electoral ambition, women in politics, and candidates and elections.
