Beijing, Hanoi Agree to Establish Naval Hotline to Resolve Emergencies in South China Sea by Morgan Artvukhina While the two nations have a history of sometimes-violent border disputes, China and Vietnam have emphasized the increasing importance of political and economic cooperation since normalizing relations in 1991. Nonetheless, Washington has tried to pry Vietnam and other Southeast Asian nations away from working with China. Chinese and Vietnamese naval leaders have agreed to set up a naval hotline as part of a larger effort to defuse tensions in the South China Sea. This comes after their respective heads of state recently agreed to improve diplomatic and trade relations, too. Rear Admiral Tran Thanh Nghiem, Commander of the Vietnam People’s Navy, held an online talk with Admiral Shen Jinlong, Commander of the People's Liberation Army Navy last week to discuss military relations between the two socialist nations, which are sometimes fraught with dispute and confrontation over competing claims to parts of the South China Sea. According to the Vietnamese defense ministry’s official People’s Army Newspaper, “the two sides agreed to enhance the sharing of information related to situations at sea and issues of mutual concern, study the possibility of setting up a hotline to connect the two navies, and maintain the joint patrol mechanism in the Gulf of Tonkin.” The People’s Army Newspaper further notes that Nghiem hailed previous efforts at improving bilateral defense cooperation and the regular meetings between naval leaders, organization of patrols, and joint drills at sea. -

It was the first think tank to be established in France, as the concept didn’t exist in the country before Ifri’s creation in 1979. Secondly, today it is the only one in France to be at the forefront of international rankings, while also fully maintaining its French identity. Specializing in the rational study of international relations in the broadest, Ifri examines the planet’s major regional and crosscutting issues, and seeks to structure ensuing discussions. Its policy-oriented research generally targets a medium-term time horizon. Ifri’s work draws it towards political, economic, media and academic partners. Over time, its relationship with businesses and companies has become increasingly important. Free from administrative supervision and ideologically uncommitted, Ifri seeks to diversify its financing and maintain the objectivity of its research, without ever losing sight of the public interest and the need for openness. Ifri's researchers work on the ground and across various networks, and are frequently called upon by both traditional and social media outlets. -

The Global Economic Outlook Us Elections and Beyond
THE GLOBAL ECONOMIC OUTLOOK US ELECTIONS AND BEYOND November 2016 Laurence Boone Chief Economist, AXA Group Head of Research, AXA IM [email protected] Key messages US elections: significant change ahead, uncertainty prevails for now The US election could prove a game changer, well beyond economics World affairs and domestic social issues are likely to be impacted by the Trump election. A radical redefinition of global governance is likely if the US retreats from international commitments On economics, Trump looks set to kick-start the ‘traditional’ boom-bust cycle over the next few years Uncertainty will prevail until Trump is inaugurated. Appointments made until 20th January will only be indicators Fiscal support could boost the growth outlook in 2017 and especially in 2018 There is agreement between Trump and the Republicans to cut taxes for households and corporates, while the infrastructure spending programme is less consensual More complex: a relaxation of financial regulation is likely, albeit at regional levels. Other important sectors include energy, defence and security, healthcare (reform of the Affordable Care Act) The Fed should turn more hawkish than previously expected and hike twice in 2017, three times in 2018 Trade remains one of the most uncertain areas Renegotiations of NAFTA agreements with Mexico and trade restrictions with China would go against the Republican establishment and the interest of many US firms Trump received a popular mandate to protect manufacturing jobs, however, and has more power to act -

Donald Trump: a Critical Theory-Perspective on Authoritarian Capitalism
tripleC 15(1): 1-72, 2017 http://www.triple-c.at Donald Trump: A Critical Theory-Perspective on Authoritarian Capitalism Christian Fuchs University of Westminster, London, UK, [email protected], @fuchschristian Abstract: This paper analyses economic power, state power and ideological power in the age of Donald Trump with the help of critical theory. It applies the critical theory approaches of thinkers such as Franz Neumann, Theodor W. Adorno and Erich Fromm. It analyses changes of US capitalism that have together with political anxiety and demagoguery brought about the rise of Donald Trump. This article draws attention to the importance of state theory for understanding Trump and the changes of politics that his rule may bring about. It is in this context important to see the complexity of the state, including the dynamic relationship be- tween the state and the economy, the state and citizens, intra-state relations, inter-state rela- tions, semiotic representations of and by the state, and ideology. Trumpism and its potential impacts are theorised along these dimensions. The ideology of Trump (Trumpology) has played an important role not just in his business and brand strategies, but also in his political rise. The (pseudo-)critical mainstream media have helped making Trump and Trumpology by providing platforms for populist spectacles that sell as news and attract audiences. By Trump making news in the media, the media make Trump. An empirical analysis of Trump’s rhetoric and the elimination discourses in his NBC show The Apprentice underpins the analysis of Trumpology. The combination of Trump’s actual power and Trump as spectacle, showman and brand makes his government’s concrete policies fairly unpredictable. -
