AbstractIn this essay, we use the example of chronic extractive violence in the Mexican mining sector to examine the impact of human rights violations in this sector on geopolitical and geoeconomic relations. Human rights violations in Mexico’s extractive sector have transnational effects due to public opinion shifts that can disrupt global supply chains and strain diplomatic ties. This topic is important beyond the Mexican case, as resource-rich middle-income countries are increasingly pressured by great power-led technological and economic competition and climate-related mitigation efforts.

The globalization process has led to significant levels of controversy, as over the past few years, researchers have highlighted its negative connotations in terms of exacerbating economic inequalities, environmental degradation, exploitation of workers, loss of cultural diversity, and negative influence on democratic systems and financial stability. The negative connotation associated with the globalization process is not surprising. The implications for the global educational system significantly dominated by the influence of Western values, culture, and economic models based on consumerism to the detriment of traditional cultural and local identities have been eroded. The world economies are facing emerging areas of significant concern as we engage with the global dialogue seeking for alternatives to support sustainable economic development. On the one hand, globalization is seen as a force that cannot be stopped and will ultimately lead to everyone’s financial security. On the other hand, globalization seems to have been identified as the main culprit for economic and political imbalances affecting contemporary society. Significant aspects of the adverse effects associated with globalization relate to our global and diverse culture and the implications of leading toward a homogenized global culture. Others see it as an opportunity to flip conventional wisdom and construct cutting-edge practices. This essay provides a critical discussion and reflection on how the classic challenges of globalization have multiplied in the new, globally integrated world.

The Russian war in Ukraine has brought the deterrence dilemma back to the international table. More than a year after the eruption of the war both parties’ deterrence and military strategies, in parallel with the international community’s failed diplomacy, have proved non-decisive in ending the conflict. On the other hand, the war seems to be expanding to a more complex scenario with profound political and economic consequences. Despite some initial optimistic policy analyses, the war will not be short-timed, and its long-lasting consequences will remain even if the hostilities and armed aggressions cease. Economic power and military strategies contribute to reshaping the world’s economic and political order due to their substantial impact on economic and energy assets. The interplay between political, military, economic effects, deterrence strategies and the security dilemma requires insights due to the renewed bargaining force in the global balance of power.

The essay explores the inclusion of sustainability commitments in free trade agreements (FTAs) in the Asia-Pacific and the potential differences in their emphases that may reflect “competing regionalisms” in the region. Discussing the geo-economics of cross-border regionalism, the diverse trade agreements are compared as to provisions on sustainable development, and reflected with European Union FTAs. Findings indicate a lack of sustainable development issues in the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership and in China’s FTAs with regional neighbors, whereas the Trans-Pacific Partnership, and its successor, the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership, have substantial commitments on environmental and labor protection. The results suggest that the role of advanced economies as norm setters in sustainability policies may be challenged by a shift toward other emphases in Asia-Pacific FTAs. This contributes to our understanding of the cross-currents in global trade regime leading to competing regionalisms, and therefore, the limits to multilateralizing sustainability issues.

AbstractConflict analysis is a key step to be considered by conflict and peace academics, practitioners and policymakers willing to assess the complexities associated with conflict scenarios. With this aim, this essay explores how Geopolitical Risk, particularly the Geopolitical Risk Index, could be used as a supportive tool for multidisciplinary studies in geoeconomics and geopolitics. The case of the war in Ukraine was taken as an example that guided the research framework. The core research findings show that conflict studies could accommodate geopolitical risk as a conflict analysis tool. However, caution is needed regarding the limitations and complexities associated with econometric modeling and how it can be used to integrate behavioral sciences, which are critical aspects of understanding the human dimension attached to decision-making processes, and that emerge as a significant limitation.

AbstractBuilding on the historical foundations of the geopolitics of energy, this essay argues that under capitalism, the “energy model” performs more functions than only supplying energy to the system. In the fossil fuel model, the territorial control of energy sources (coal, oil, gas, and uranium) preserves hegemony, and since the 1970s, oil revenue has been used to sustain global imbalances. Considering that the properties of renewable sources are radically different from those of fossil fuels (there is no possibility of territorial control or commodification), I discuss the concepts of soft and hard paths as established by Lovins and using the example of “new hydrogen geopolitics,” in an attempt to create a hard path renewable model similar to the fossil fuel one, may foster new tensions that could catalyze a new generation of energy-related conflicts.

AbstractTrade among neighboring nations holds significant economic importance, influencing the socio-economic development of countries. India and Pakistan represent one of the most persistent conflicts in contemporary international relations. The continuation of this conflict poses significant challenges to the establishment and nurturing of robust economic ties between the two nations. Deep-rooted historical animosity between neighboring nations often adversely affects regional economic relations, leading to noticeable disruption and disparities in trade patterns. This study focuses on examining the impact of geopolitical dynamics on trade relations between India and Pakistan. Bilateral trade relations between the two countries have been examined in three distinct time periods: 1965–2011, 2011–2016, and 2016 onwards. The findings revealed that whenever there were hostile relations between the two countries, their trade relations were also adversely affected. Furthermore, it is recommended that emphasizing the importance of peaceful relations is crucial for fostering bilateral trade between the two countries.

AbstractAmbitious climate action is crucial to achieve social justice and peaceful development in the next decades. However, the current geopolitical and geoeconomic context runs counter to meaningful climate action. In fact, in 2023, global emissions were higher than ever, and future reduction prospects look grim, as Green New Deal policies are facing significant political, economic, and geostrategic challenges on both sides of the Atlantic. Against this backdrop, it is more important than ever to think out of the box in order to build alliances among social movements for an immediate reduction of emissions. Thus, this paper aims to critically explore the role that human rights can play to achieve climate justice in this context, not only as only as legal instruments, but also as a promising narrative of change that includes planetary boundaries and the central imperative of global and national redistribution.

摘要雄心勃勃的气候行动是未来几十年实现社会正义与和平发展的关键。然而，当前的地缘政治和地缘经济背景不利于采取有意义的气候行动。事实上，在2023年，全球排放量比以往任何时候都要高，未来的减排前景看起来很严峻，因为绿色新政政策在大西洋两岸都面临着重大的政治、经济和地缘战略挑战。在这种背景下，为了在社会运动之间建立联盟，立即减少排放，打破常规思考比以往任何时候都更加重要。因此，本文旨在批判性地探讨人权在这种背景下为实现气候正义所能发挥的作用，人权不仅是一种法律工具，而且是一种有希望的变革叙事，其中包括地球边界和全球和国家再分配的核心必要性。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。注1 António古特雷斯在安理会气候与安全辩论上的发言，2021年9月23日。可在:https://unfccc.int/news/statement-by-antonio-guterres-at-security-council-debate-on-climate-and-security2参见:https://www.vanuatuicj.com/resolution.Additional information关于贡献者的说明ana García-JuanateyDr。Ana García Juanatey，意大利庞培法布拉大学国际法博士(2016,UPF)。她目前在巴塞罗那大学(UB)附属的CEI国际事务中心工作，担任全职教授和可持续发展硕士课程的执行协调员。曾在《南欧社会与政治》、《行政与社会》、《可持续发展法律与政策杂志》、《欧洲高等教育杂志》等国际期刊上发表研究成果。SteibleBettina SteibleBettina SteibleBettina SteibleBettina SteibleBettina是加泰罗尼亚Oberta大学公法助理教授(教授)。她拥有Autònoma巴塞罗那大学的法学博士学位，并因其在促进人权方面的最佳博士论文获得了2018年杰米·布鲁内奖。她的研究兴趣主要集中在欧洲宪法和欧洲人权法。电子邮件:bsteible@uoc.edu
