Silicon Europe
Semiconductors and chips have become increasingly indispensable, present in everything from smartphones and cars to home appliances and medical devices. However, we often fail to recognize the significant technological and creative efforts that go into creating these “life companions.” While it’s commonly assumed that technological innovations are exclusively produced in Asian factories or American laboratories, few realize that there has been a “Silicon Europe” of industrial and technological excellence across France and Italy for decades. At the heart of this region lies STMicroelectronics, a world-leading chip company. Through the history of ST and European microelectronics, journalist and writer Marco Bardazzi takes readers on an incredible journey that documents the ideas, inventions, stories, and people behind the technologies and objects that have revolutionized our lives in recent decades. Bardazzi also sheds light on the cutting-edge technology sector that is pivotal to new generations and future jobs, in which Europe is playing an essential role.
Efficiency and Justice in the Industrial World: v. 2: The Uneasy Success of Postwar Europe
European market integration was originally seen as the way to overcome national enmities in the wake of World War II. Over time, it acquired the purpose of social melioration as well. Today, the advanced market societies are richer than they have ever been, yet each is driven by social and economic divisions as some groups thrive while others lose ground. The tension between the social demand for equity and security, and the market's drive to burst the bonds of state regulation both internally and at the border post, has taken on new complexity. It is this issue that underlies domestic political struggles over privatisation, safety-net programmes, immigration policies and trade agreements. Will European Union survive the stresses of high employment and the strains of German unification? These are some of the questions Dusan Pokorny considers in this second volume of his exploration of the efficiency-justice conundrum.
Retour sur la fin de la guerre froide et la réunification allemande
L’année 1990 est une année d’accomplissements exceptionnels sanctionnant la fin des guerres du XXe siècle. Coup sur coup ont été signés le traité de réunification allemande, le traité sur le désarmement conventionnel en Europe et la Charte de Paris, qui définissait les cadres d’une Europe enfin réconciliée de l’Atlantique à l’Oural. Pour y parvenir, il a fallu une équipe exceptionnelle : des politiques, des conseillers, des diplomates, rompus aux négociations les plus ardues, non seulement aux techniques mais à l’art de la diplomatie. Ce livre leur rend hommage en leur donnant la parole. Nicolas Dufourcq a recueilli les témoignages des différents acteurs et négociateurs qui ont œuvré, Français, Allemands, Britanniques, Russes et Américains. Leur réunion dans ce livre unique constitue une source incontournable pour tous ceux qui se passionnent pour la grande Histoire du XXe siècle. Nicolas Dufourcq est le directeur général de BPI-France. Bertrand Dufourcq, son père, était le négociateur pour la France du traité de réunification allemande. Ce livre lui rend aussi hommage.
The Reinvention of Development Banking in the European Union
National development banks (NDBs) have transformed from outdated relics of national industrial policy to central pillars of the European Union's economic project. This book explores why the EU has supported an increased role for NDBs, and how we might understand the dynamics between NDBs and European incentives and constraints.

When AI Rules the World
Over the past decade, China has quietly and methodically moved into a near-leadership position in artificial intelligence technologies on a global scale. Meanwhile, the United States has responded ineffectively, weighed down by politics, bureaucracy, and an absence of clear strategy. In the near future, wars will be fought not over land, but over data. Machines will quickly discover individualized treatments for diseases, and with the help of virtual reality, AI will inspect buildings that have not yet been built. With the rising interest in these technologies by both China and the U.S., who will emerge as the victor of this technological race? When AI Rules the World is an investigation and call to action into AI technologies for a nation that does not yet comprehend the full gravity of the AI revolution. The United States is losing the race for AI dominance, and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
A Divided Republic

Vassal State
British politicians love to vaunt the benefits of the UK's supposed 'special relationship' with the US. But are we really America's economic partner – or its colony? Vassal State lays bare the extent to which US corporations own and control Britain's economy: how American business chiefs decide what we're paid, what we buy, and how we buy it. US companies have carved up Britain between them, siphoning off enormous profits, buying up our most lucrative firms and assets, and extracting huge rents from UK PLC – all while paying little or no tax. Meanwhile, policymakers, from Whitehall mandarins to NHS chiefs, shape their decisions to suit the whims of our American corporate overlords. Based on his 40 years of business experience, devastating new research, and interviews with the major players, Angus Hanton exposes why Britain has become the poor transatlantic relation – and what we can do to change it.
