Present:

- 2nd hard copy edition of "IMNRC - NewPOL Consortium Network: The Interface Paradigm" (under preparation). Click here to view front cover or go to Activities.

The objectives are the same as for the 1rst edition.

The book serves to invite interactive local, regional, national and international discussions with the public (whatever the background, ethnic origin and condition) relayed by the Press and TV/Radio programs on the internal dysfunctions of The System, the object being to improve World Society Well Being and Quality of Life. We shall be examining what IS and what IS NOT working in World Society. Considering the present world situation, a thorough vertical integrated interdisciplinary study across frontiers of the latter is not only essential but urgent.

We tentatively propose a solution: the Interface (or NewPOL Network) Paradigm.

In addition, we shall present our Board of Editors together with the International Multidisciplinary Interface Research Congress (IMIRC) Programme.

The 2nd hard copy edition shall be exposed during the NewPOL Network International Press Conference in Brussels/Tervuren, Belgium.

- European Commission & European Parliament - Invitation - Special Meeting on the EIT - Brussels (30th June 2011).

Note. This meeting is very interesting because the EIT was directly inspired from the IMNRC: my work! This has always been a source of tension between Barosso and myself. The EIT apparently indirectly reacted to my open criticisms by reducing the scope of its ambitions. The trouble for the EIT is that in this period of economic crisis, spending an enormous amount of money on something that not only isn’t original but that shall also not improve the citizen’s well being ad quality of life, is not going to be very popular among the taxpayers. So, why not integrate the IIRC in the EIT...? The IIRC shall be discussed during Part III of the IMIRC (International Multidisciplinary Interface Research Congress).

- The Madariaga – College of Europe Foundation - Invitation - Citizen’s Controversy: "The pros and cons of reappointing Mr Barroso" - 7 July 2009 - Brussels, Belgium.

Whilst unanimously backed by the leaders of the 27 EU Member States at their Summit on 19-20 June, José Manuel Barroso’s reappointment as President of the European Commission has emerged as the first issue of debate amongst newly elected MEPs. The centre-right EPP, the largest parliamentary group, supports Mr Barroso’s candidature and favours a vote on the issue at the Parliament’s first session on 14-15 July. On the other hand the Greens - vehemently opposed to Mr Barroso - and the Alliance of Socialists and Democrats are pushing for the vote to be delayed until after the Irish referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. The liberal group ALDE is split on the issue. So what exactly is at stake here? What has Mr Barroso come to stand for? What impact is the decision likely to have on the institutional and political setting of the EU for the forthcoming years?

Que la Torah, l'Évangile, le Coran contiennent des appels à la violence ou soient invoqués pour justifier le mépris, voilà qui inquiète ou révolte tout être humain et davantage encore les croyants. Un juif, un chrétien et un musulman parcourent ici leurs Écritures respectives et les traditions qui s'en réclament. À bien les comprendre, contiennent-elles vraiment de tels "versets douloureux"? Si oui, quelle attitude adopter? Chaque communauté de croyants, instamment invitée au courage de l'autocritique, se doit d'abord de "balayer devant sa porte", si elle veut être fidèle au coeur du message qu'elle porte.

- 1rst hard copy edition of "IMNRC - NewPOL Consortium Network: The Interface Paradigm": sold out! Click here to view front cover or go to Activities.

The book serves to invite interactive local, regional, national and international discussions with the public (whatever the background, ethnic origin and condition) relayed by the Press and TV/Radio programs on the internal dysfunctions of The System, the object being to improve World Society Well Being and Quality of Life. We shall be examining what IS and what IS NOT working in World Society. Considering the present world situation, a thorough vertical integrated interdisciplinary study across frontiers of the latter is not only essential but urgent.

We tentatively propose a solution: the Interface (or NewPOL Network) Paradigm.
