We are witnessing a terrifying world drift. The non-acceptance by the United States of its decline as a global hegemonic power is stressing the planet to unimaginable extremes. The so-called “Thucydides trap”, which describes the tendency for a hegemonic power to go to war when threatened by an emerging one, is fully unfolding before our eyes with all its devastating consequences. The hegemon, who considers himself threatened, displays his most sinister face both internally and externally: censorship, suffocating manipulation of media messages, single discourse, maximum use of fear as a political weapon.

The emphasis on national solutions is the reverse of the rejection of the search for hegemony and messianism in any format.
