This last paper in the volume tries to pull the threads together and to detect trends of evolution in the analysis of international relations. The discussion is limited to three issues deemed basic to this evolution: 1) the increasing g importance of technology and its impact on the world System, and especially on one of its basic components: the nation-state ; 2) contents and characteristics of the new industry of futurology ; and 3) the rise of political economy as a basic approach to the study of international relations. It is suggested that we are growing beyond such simplistic divisions as "High" and "Low Politics", and obsession with methodologism per se, and that we are increasingly putting rigor and interdisciplinarity in the service of analysing "substantial" issues of international relations.

International aid.
Niger, a Sahelian country known for its institutional stability, has been confronted since 1983 to an economic and financial crisis. Its programme for national recovery has resulted in an increasing dependence on international aid.

S'appuyant principalement sur la guerre de l'Otan contre la Yougoslavie, l'auteur examine les soubassements juridiques qui ont été avancés pour justifier cette intervention. Il montre les incohérences d'un «droit cosmopolite» ou d'une «justice universelle» qu'on voudrait présenter comme en gestation et leur dérive certaine vers un usage d'habillage du droit du plus fort qui doit être interprété comme l'absence grandissante de droit dans les relations internationales.

Elle intégre progressivement des théories et des éléments d'analyse issus d'autres sciences sociales, qui pevent introduire un danger de dissolution. Mais ce dynamisme est le signe d'une grande vitalité de la part d'une discipline cruciale afin de comprendre le monde.

About the International Monetary System, by Benjamin J. Cohen
The outlook for the world financial system is clouded by a variety of problems - volatility of floating exchange rates, inefficient management of the multiple-reserve-asset standard, the massive burden of balance-of-payments financing. No doubt it would be excessively pessimistic, not to say alarmist, to predict outright collapse: the system has shown considerable resiliency, after all, in recent years. The potential for improvement exists in our international monetary arrangements, but it is not infinite. The system could be better managed, both efficiency and consistency could be promoted. Why not begin? But nothing can ensure that monetary relations will always remain stable and free of policy conflict. So long as there will be politically sovereign states and formally independent national currencies, there will be international monetary problems.
