Lilliput Lab WTO
Lilliput Lab WTO
Rather than commit itself to compromises within the World Trade Organization (WTO), the Bush administration is pursuing a policy of so-called competitive liberalization by signing free trade agreements (FTA) with single nations or sub-regional groupings around the world. But, the policy could backfire, because other countries might do the same and drop their commitment to the WTO to form “regional blocs to compete against the United States.”

Enzo Baldoni su Al-Jazira - da Rsf
27.08.2004 Dal comunicato di Un Ponte per... "Questa guerra ci ha portato via due amici. Uno si chiamava Gharib, era un iracheno di origine palestinese, gioviale e generoso, sempre pronto ad essere lì dove la guerra colpiva per tentare di salvare qualcuno. Andava e veniva da Falluja, durante l'assedio statunitense, per portare i feriti negli ospedali. L'altro amico di chiamava Enzo, era con Gharib quando quest?ultimo è stato ucciso, forse tentando di difenderlo.

23.08.2004 "La migrazione non può essere affrontata solo con la revisione di una legge che dimostra, a distanza di più di un anno dal suo promulgamento, la farraginosità del pensiero politico che l'ha sostenuta e la fragilità delle norme applicative; bisogna governare il fenomeno con un concreto programma politico di cooperazione internazionale in grado di investire in modo concreto ed adeguato, nel medio e lungo termine, sullo sviluppo dei Paesi del Sud del mondo." Con queste parole Antonio Raimondi, presidente del VIS - Volontariato Internazionale per lo Sviluppo, ha aperto a Rifreddo di Pignola, Potenza, la XV Settimana di Educazione alla Mondialità dedicata quest'anno al tema della Migrazione e della Cooperazione Internazionale.

Of the 92 countries that have ratified the statute of the International Criminal Court (ICC), only five are not full democracies. With the ICC’s administrative and judicial structures under the control of democratic countries - - all of whom are key U.S. allies - - new democracies in Eastern Europe, Latin America and Africa are flocking to the ICC because they see the institution as a protection against a return to tyranny.
