Policy Papers
The new issue of the Policy Papers series aims to provide participants with a publication that anticipates and prepares them for the topics discussed during the conference, while also constituting relevant content for everyone interested in these discussions. This publication is composed of chapters dedicated to the central themes of the event: Global governance in the age of technological disruption: multilateralism and strategic autonomy; Artificial intelligence and democracy: between innovation and institutional erosion; Strategic minerals and sovereignty: the new geopolitics of rare earths; and New technologies and contemporary wars: drones, lethal autonomous systems, and artificial intelligence. Each topic is analyzed from complementary perspectives, articulating Latin American and European points of view. The Policy Papers format adopts direct and practice-oriented language, through which we seek to identify challenges and present concrete policy recommendations. The Policy Papers collection is bilingual and addresses the main topics discussed during the conference, encompassing the various challenges at the international level, as well as possible solutions, which require coordinated collaboration among multiple actors operating in different spheres.
