Summary/Abstract |
A remarkable technology, 5G allows us not just to surf the internet faster, but also makes possible the internet of things or IoT - a network of physical objects that are embedded with sensors, software and other technologies for the purpose of connecting and exchanging data with other devices and systems over the internet. But the 5G technology will be remembered also for starting a global race to own new communication technologies, a contest that China is winning. Geopolitical rifts have led to some countries stripping Chinese-made equipment from their 5G networks. And the next battle, for 6G supremacy, has already begun.

Summary/Abstract |
WHEN EMMANUEL MACRON met with Vladimir Putin in August 2019 at Fort Bregançon, the French president's statements about the necessity of creating with Russia "a European space from Lisbon to Vladivostok" caused a brief but resounding stir among the international press. In most EU and NATO countries, the responses were circumspect or critical. As might have been expected, the most negative assessments of these statements came from Great Britain, Poland, the Baltic countries, and (outside the EU and NATO) from Ukraine.

Summary/Abstract |
This article offers a long-term perspective on the relations between France and Germany a century after the First World War. It probes three grand periods in Franco-German affairs: 'hereditary enmity' (1871-1945), 'reconciliation' (1945-63) and the 'special relationship' since 1963. Through an investigation of the basic meaning and patterns of interstate interaction, particularly the resilient and adaptable embedded bilateralism of recent decades, the article seeks not only to delineate the key elements of the past, but also to accentuate the stakes of the present, as well as to cast an eye towards the future. The significance of the current crises in European affairs, this article maintains, lies not in the first place in their momentary tumult or troubles, but rather in their potential to unravel constitutive aspects of Franco-German relations and European politics of the past half century. Today, next to a rejuvenated Franco-German bilateralism embedded in a wider Europe, two other trajectories appear as 'possible futures': German hegemony in a partially integrated Europe; and a Europe of chronic muddling through, presumably along with a degeneration of the European project.

Summary/Abstract |
If Europe continues to pull itself back from the brink of financial calamity and political instability, historians will write books not about how the radical right destroyed the European project but how elected officials checked populist influences and found a way to muddle through.
