Rethinking the Global Security Architecture?

GED 2 Amphi 7 July 2, 2026 17:00 - 17:30

Overview

It is clear that we are witnessing a reconfiguration of the international order in a context marked by the return of high-intensity conflict, the rise of great power rivalries, and the weakening of multilateral frameworks inherited from the post-Cold War era. Recent events such as the war in Ukraine, tensions in the Indo-Pacific and the proliferation of cyber attacks illustrate the diversification of threats and the increasing porosity between internal and external security.


In this context, traditional alliances such as NATO are being redefined, while new actors – both state and non-state – are reshaping power balances. The central question then becomes that of the modalities of a security governance capable of articulating sovereignty, cooperation and conflict prevention. In this regard, what are the levers for a more stable and inclusive architecture adapted to contemporary challenges?
