The history of Palestine, particularly in the Gaza Strip, is being rewritten not only by bombs but also by narratives. What we are witnessing today is not merely a war—it is a multifaceted process of territorial, symbolic, and political erasure. Perhaps most alarming is that this erasure occurs simultaneously on two levels: on the ground and in global perception

Due the war in Iran Brazil has been developing initiatives aimed at increasing its national energy autonomy. Projects to expand refining capacity—such as the enlargement of the Abreu e Lima Refinery—seek to increase domestic diesel production, aiming to reduce national vulnerability to potential international crises related to the oil market.

In contexts of war or prolonged instability, governments tend to seek political, military, or diplomatic victories that reinforce their domestic position and external credibility.

This is a common feature of the Lula administration’s foreign policy. Diversification, in this sense, is the formula to mitigate systemic risks

For several decades, the global development imaginary has been consolidated into a rigid dichotomy: Asia as the engine of world growth and Africa as a marginal continent within the international economic system. This narrative, widely reproduced in political, media, and academic discourse, fails to capture the complexity and heterogeneity of African trajectories.

The death of Saif al-Islam Gaddafi has reignited debate about Libya’s political future and the possible end of the Gaddafi dynasty.

After the 2011 uprising, the country plunged into a profound institutional crisis, marked by rival governments, armed militias, and territorial fragmentation (W

political concept known as “neo-Luddism,” which is used today to describe critical attitudes toward digital technologies and the logics that sustain them. Concerns focus on algorithmic surveillance, mass collection of personal data, automation of cognitive labor, and the dehumanization of social processes mediated by AI.
