To arrive at a methodology that will help identify the factors that led to the uprising in Egypt; so as to predict and preempt such events in future by taking proactive action
The re-emergence of new forms of policing has led to political interest and dictatorship.After great thinkers like J.J. Rousseau perceived man as being in chain since birth, the DPT gives a different perception of politics in Africa and Cameroon in particular.
The document summarizes World Systems Theory, which views international migration as a result of disruptions caused by the expansion of global capitalism. According to the theory, as capitalist firms penetrate peripheral regions seeking land, resources and labor, they undermine traditional social structures and create rootless populations prone to migration. International migration patterns are explained not by wage differences but by historical world-system dynamics like colonialism that create social and economic ties between countries. The theory divides the global economy into core, semi-peripheral and peripheral states and views migration as a natural outcome of the unequal development perpetuated by the capitalist world-system.
The document discusses the socio-economic factors that contributed to the Tunisian revolution in 2011. It finds that while Tunisia enjoyed relatively high GDP and economic growth, wealth was highly concentrated and most people faced poverty and unemployment. The revolution was driven by high youth unemployment, rising food and living costs, corruption, and restrictions on civil liberties. Social media also helped protesters organize and spread information about the uprising. Thus, the combination of economic grievances and dissatisfaction with the authoritarian political system led Tunisians to rise up and overthrow the long-standing regime.
Capitalism bases its strategy on provoking consumption at whatever cost, or executing a service at whatever price, such as the re-education of minors locked up for months by pure trifles. And it is precisely this consumption that fuels the energy. The film does not come to raise the environmental consequences that can be seen all over the planet caused by a system based on the plundering of natural assets to enrich a few.
Arab Spring an overview of the situation that arose from Harsh living conditions in the Middle east and parts of africa and aims to give a crisp understanding of the sam.
This document analyzes the economic impacts of the Arab Spring uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya. It discusses the causes of the uprisings in each country, including high unemployment, food price inflation, and corruption. It then examines the economic effects, such as declines in GDP growth, tourism, and industrial production in Tunisia and Egypt following their revolutions. For Libya, it covers the ongoing civil war and international intervention, and analyzes impacts including rises in global oil and food prices, losses to Italian investments in Libya, and uncertainty around Libya's political and economic future.
The document discusses how the Arab Spring has impacted digital perceptions and brands in the Middle East market. It first provides background on the Arab Spring phenomenon and its economic impacts. It then examines the digital landscape in the region, including internet, mobile, and social media usage. The document also analyzes different types of marketers and their reactions to digital opportunities. Finally, it discusses best practices and case studies for brands operating in the region.
I was fascinated by the Arab Spring phenomenon (2011-2014) which reveals how complex the social-political situation in MENA (Middle East and North Africa) had been. Many of my countrymen don't understand the realities there, instead believing conspiracy theories which simplified things to merely "US/Israel/Zionist vs Islam/muslims".
This presentation is my attempt to summarize the history and geopolitical complexities and to debunk some conspiracy theories related to Arab Spring.My sources are multiple articles in CNN, TIME, Al-Jazeera, Al-Monitor, Stratfor, Foreign Policy, among others.
I closed this ever expanding presentation in the beginning of 2014 since it became obvious that the revolution season was over and multiple failures manifested in many countries.

Multicultural Digital Influence on Consumer Markets - A StudyChappy_02
This document discusses how multicultural millennials are influencing mainstream consumer attitudes and behaviors through digital engagement. It notes that to effectively reach these consumers, brands must authentically connect with the culturally relevant values of influential minority groups online. The data presented indicates that minority populations, especially millennials, have significant spending power and are adopting digital technologies like social media at higher rates than other groups. As diversity grows in the US, multicultural influence over popular culture and the total consumer market will also increase through digital platforms.
Colombia in 2002 faced major security, economic, and social problems as it had a fragile state threatened by terrorist groups and crime. Alvaro Uribe outlined his vision and policies to address this by building confidence, prioritizing security, promoting investment, and fostering social cohesion. His leadership approached problems directly with citizens and a results-driven administration, leading to significant improvements in security, economic growth, and social indicators over his terms in office. Uribe drew lessons from leaders like Lincoln in getting out of the office, being honest and courageous, and preaching a vision directly to the people.
1. Colombia in 2002 faced major security, economic, and social problems including high rates of violence, poverty, and weak investor confidence.
2. Alvaro Uribe implemented policies focused on democratic security, investment, and social cohesion to build confidence and transform Colombia. His administration prioritized direct engagement with citizens and regional macro and micro management of security issues.
3. Uribe's leadership and results-driven reforms led to significant improvements in security, economic, and social indicators over his terms in office and helped dismantle illegal armed groups and criminal networks. However, continuing challenges remained for Colombia.
HCFDC Internet, la petite fabrique du social et du renouveau des confrontationsFabrice Epelboin
This document discusses the impact of social media and information sharing on social disruptions and corporate branding. It notes that social media has enabled social movements and protests starting in 2011 in Tunisia, Egypt, Spain, the US and other countries. Anonymous and WikiLeaks are presented as examples of "information guerrillas" and "social hacks" that have revealed corporate and government secrets. The document warns of incoming disruptions to branding, culture, economics and politics from increased transparency and loss of control of information spread through social media.

[Challenge:Future] Moral underpinnings of capitalism Challenge:Future
The document discusses the history and development of capitalism, including its roots in trade, the industrial revolution, and economic crises of the 20th century. It also examines current issues like wealth polarization, environmental challenges, and the role of technology and influential individuals in shaping the future development of capitalism. The document argues that capitalism must evolve to address these issues through reforms that promote more equal wealth distribution and environmental sustainability.
The document discusses trends in development cooperation over six phases from colonial administration to the current "bipolar" architecture since 2008. It outlines both positive "dreams" including recognition of common challenges, emerging rights frameworks, and country-level innovations as well as negative "nightmares" such as increasing poverty, exclusion, and new forms of colonialism by middle-income countries. It calls for a bold vision of universal human rights and social justice to guide international development cooperation.
This document summarizes Alvaro Uribe Vélez's remarks on Colombia's transformation from 2002-2010. When Uribe took office in 2002, Colombia faced high levels of violence, weak economic growth, and low social development. Uribe implemented a three-pronged strategy of democratic security, investment with social responsibility, and social cohesion. This led to significant improvements in security, economic, and social indicators by 2010, including reduced homicides and kidnappings, increased GDP growth and exports, and expanded health and education coverage. Uribe argues Colombia's progress demonstrates the importance of consistent leadership, good governance, and citizen support to enact meaningful long-term change.

Corruption in China increased dramatically after economic reforms began in 1978. The dual economic system created opportunities for officials to profit privately from public authority. Xi Jinping launched a sweeping anti-corruption campaign in 2012 called "Catching Tigers and Flies" to address this. The campaign prosecuted many high-level officials but faced challenges due to the decentralized power of local authorities and cultural factors like nepotism. While improving transparency, the campaign's long-term success in curbing corruption depends on deeper political reforms.
Urban equity in development cities for life englishDr Lendy Spires
1. Inequality has increased significantly in recent decades around the world, both between and within countries and cities. Income disparities, gender inequalities, and youth inequalities are on the rise.
2. There is a growing consensus that inequality hinders economic growth and development. International organizations like the IMF, OECD, and World Bank now recognize the negative impacts of inequality.
3. The World Urban Forum 7 will focus on the theme of "Urban Equity in Development" to address the widening gaps between rich and poor in cities and the consequences of rising inequality.
Urban equity in development cities for life englishDr Lendy Spires
1) The document discusses growing inequality globally and in cities, noting that income disparities have increased in most countries over the past few decades.
2) It argues that equity needs to be integrated into development agendas to ensure equal access to opportunities and services for all. The concept of "Cities for Life" is presented as a way to operationalize urban equity.
3) The World Urban Forum 7 will focus on the theme of "Urban Equity in Development" and promoting the idea that development strategies should create fair and just conditions for people in cities around the world.
That the world of work as we have always known it is undergoing rapid metamorphosis is honestly an understatement, as the boundaries and worldview of work as currently constituted are being radically redefined at rocket speed level daily by many factors but more importantly by the unfolding Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR). It appears that the ability of organizations, nations and societies to adapt and leverage the 4IR will determine the currency of their global relevance and the degree of sustainable development they can achieve.
The disruptive transformations that the fourth industrial revolution has brought into the contemporary global space are blurring the existing traditional boundaries in all spheres of life, enabling multifaceted convergence of multidisciplinary territories that were hitherto considered conceptually divergent.
This is a call to action for a multi-stakeholder, multidisciplinary approach to how nations particularly Nigeria can start conversations on the impact of the 4IR on work, the workplace and the workforce and how best to prepare for these disruptive impacts.
The document discusses the results of interviews with horizon scanners about emerging global trends. Three key points are:
1) Horizon scanners identified automation as the most impactful trend, linking it to a changing workforce, growing wage and education gaps, and increasing economic inequality.
2) Political fragmentation, primarily in Europe, was seen as having mostly negative implications for free trade, technology, and the global economy.
3) Horizon scanners noted social consciousness and corporate responsibility as growing trends as the public demands more accountability from companies.
