Wat zijn de gevolgen van de Amerikaanse verkiezingen – of het nou Trump wordt, of Harris – voor de Europese agrifoodbusiness? Nieuwe Oogst bespreekt het met Rob De Wijk: ‘Amerika voert al jaren een beleid dat de eigen economie en landbouwproducten beschermt. Trump staat erom bekend, maar onder Biden is dat de afgelopen vier jaar niet veel beter geweest.’ Het probleem zit vooral in Europa zelf, stelt De Wijk. We zijn te traag en te afhankelijk van anderen om te voorzien in de eigen behoeften.
On September 23rd, 2024, HCSS organised the second The Hague Strategic Foresight Forum Talks, titled: ‘Global Perspectives on Future Security Trends’. It was noted in the first strategic foresight talk that the transatlantic perspective is only one amongst many, and that we needed to look beyond our usual circles and widen to our discussion to a global perspective. This forum offered a unique opportunity to broaden our horizon and gain insights from global experts to enrich our understanding of ‘possible futures’ in order to help establish a global baseline in foresight.

This guest paper ‘What divides us? And the impact on democracy and stability’ was written by Jakkie Cilliers in anticipation of the second The Hague Strategic Foresight Forum Talks titled ‘Global Perspectives on Future Security Trends’. This closed-door event will be held on the 23rd of September 2024. The paper examines the widening gap between the Global North and Global South amid shifting economic and political dynamics. It explores how these global divisions—fueled by economic disparities, geopolitical tensions, and climate change—affect democratisation, governance, and global stability. The piece also delves into Africa’s unique challenges and opportunities within this evolving landscape.
This guest paper ‘A Latin American perspective on the key drivers of future international security trends’ was written by Prof. Alcides Costa Vaz in anticipation of the second The Hague Strategic Foresight Forum Talks titled ‘Global Perspectives on Future Security Trends’. This closed-door event will be held on the 23rd of September 2024. The paper highlights how Latin America, while generally free from interstate wars, faces significant security threats from organised crime, geopolitical rivalries, technological vulnerabilities, and environmental degradation. These trends are likely to persist, shaping both regional and global security landscapes in the near future.
