To establish a real picture of communism in the USA and to understand its actual situation, I will first talk about the reasons why the USA cannot be seen as the best place to be a communist and then I will ask myself whether we can say there is an agony of communism in the country since 1990.
- The USA: a bad place for communism
- Communism is against all American values
- A deeply rooted anticommunism
- Since 1990, the agony of communism '
- The CPUSA: the failure of the European model
- A possible renewal '

The picture taken at the Washington summit right after the Madrid conference just says it all: Rabin and Arafat, the representatives of the two most antagonistic peoples in the modern world, shake hands under Clintons blessing. Thus it may seem that the American presence and participation is the condition to successful peace negotiations between Arabs and Israelis. But the truth is that the interests at stake in this long-lasting conflict −land and religion, to name but a few− are too linked to both Palestinian and Israeli communities to be solved by an external power. The very notion of promised land shows that this is first a matter of attachment to land, something quite irrational or at least not rational enough to be tamed by outside powers. The United States has proved to be able to elaborate solutions that seem workable, but actual implementation is very difficult because old interests and rivalries cast away signs of sensibility.
- The United States: the third variable in the Arab-Israeli conflict
- American inconsistencies in the Arab-Israeli conflict
- A deep-rooted conflict that originates from mostly internal factors

'When examining the policies that the United States conducted toward Iran from 1945 to 1979, one cannot help but realize that Washington bears a considerable amount of the responsibility for the radicalism of the Iranian Revolution and the resultant deterioration in US-Iranian relations.'

- Iran's expectations on the United States
- Iran as a mainly geostrategic concern to the United States
- What went wrong'

Bull's The Anarchical Society is a ground-breaking book that proposes novel, powerful concepts for reading today's world order as well as the order that prevailed in the world in 1977. Today more than ever, we need the idea of international society, even if it has to be revisited to fit the realities of the 21st century
- International society as the idea-force
- Is Bull a realist or a universalist'
- Where does anarchy fit in'
- First critique: a weak link between international system and international society
- Second critique: the importance of diplomacy
- The impact of globalisation: toward a more unified international society'
- International society strikes back: the enduring relevance of Bull's ideas
