The gradual disappearance of the previous world order’s straitjackets of stability (international organisations, treaties, alliances, various regulations...) is becoming alarming. Will this alarm act as a spur or will it turn out to be a bad counsellor?

Nevertheless, avenues for future development continue to appear here and there and these need to be acknowledged and clarified.
