The US president's "Liberation Day" tariffs have hit Asian nations particularly hard, including America's closest partners like Japan and South Korea. Six Southeast Asian economies were slapped with much higher tariffs than they had expected, of up to 49 percent. Yuka Royer asks the Asia Centre's Jean-François Di Meglio about their implications and what Donald Trump is trying to achieve in his attempt to reshape the global trading order.

Donald Trump a mis sa menace à exécution en annonçant des droits de douane très lourds, en particulier contre l'Asie et l'Union européenne. Six des neuf pays d'Asie du Sud-Est cités par le président américain ont été frappés par des droits de douane beaucoup plus élevés que prévu, compris entre 32 % et 49 %. Toutes les capitales d'Asie sont sous le choc, le Japon, la Corée du Sud et la Chine veulent renforcer leur coopération pour offrir « un environnement prévisible » aux entreprises et « accélérer » leurs négociations en vue d'un accord de libre-échange. L'analyse de l'économiste Jean-François Di Meglio, président de l'institut de recherche Asia Centre.

Avec 1,45 milliard d'habitants, l'Inde est désormais devant la Chine le pays le plus peuplé de la planète et, à la différence de celle-ci, continue de voir sa population augmenter. L'Inde est, par ailleurs, la cinquième puissance économique mondiale. Narendra Modi, le très autoritaire et nationaliste dirigeant indien s'est fixé comme objectif de faire de l'Inde la 3è économie mondiale à l'horizon 2030 et d'en faire un pays développé d'ici à 2047, qui correspondra au centenaire de l'indépendance du pays.Le 14 février 2025, Narendra Modi rencontrait Donald Trump à Washington. Deux semaines plus tard, Ursula von der Leyen était reçue à New Delhi. Longtemps l'Inde s'est méfiée de l'Union européenne. New Delhi préférait négocier en bilatéral avec Paris ou Berlin, plutôt qu'avec Bruxelles. Mais les temps ont changé pour le géant asiatique comme pour l'Europe, chamboulée par le retour de Donald Trump à la Maison Blanche. Les deux blocs partagent la même faiblesse, leur dépendance à la Chine. La présidente de la Commission européenne s'est engagée avec le Premier ministre indien à finaliser un accord de libre-échange d'ici à la fin de l'année et à diversifier la coopération en l'ouvrant sur la sécurité et la défense. La Commission espère trouver dans le marché indien de nouveaux débouchés, notamment pour les voitures, les produits agricoles, le vin et les spiritueux. Une ère nouvelle est-elle en train de s'enclencher entre l'Inde et l'UE alors que l'Europe est le premier partenaire commercial de l'Inde devant les États-Unis et la Chine ? L'Inde reste un pays ultra-protectionniste. Le contexte international donnera-t-il le coup de pouce nécessaire pour dépasser les blocages ?Invités :  Christophe Jaffrelot, expert associé à l'Institut Montaigne. Directeur de recherche au CNRS et au CERI de Sciences Po. Également professeur de politique et sociologie indiennes au King's India Institute de Londres. Co-auteur de « Les défis du Make in India » et « Les dynamiques régionales contrastées de l'Inde ».

China's household debt has exploded from 11% of GDP in 2006 to over 62% today—a profound transformation in a traditionally savings-focused society. How is this reshaping social relationships and daily life? In this episode, Dr. Jiaqi Guo from the University of Turku reveals findings from her corpus analysis of China's largest debt support forum. Her research uncovers the practice of "contact bombing" (爆通讯录), where collectors harass debtors' entire social networks, causing what Chinese debtors call "social death" (社死). With minimal institutional protection, desperate debtors are forming underground support networks and developing their own legal expertise. This cultural shift exposes a human dimension of China's economic growth that statistics alone cannot capture. Dr. Jiaqi Guo is a University Lecturer in Chinese at the University of Turku, Finland. This episode is hosted by Hanna Holttinen, University Teacher in Chinese language at the University of Turku, Finland.

How does social media shape perceptions of global cultural trends? On Chinese platforms like WeChat, the concept of Nordic Style (北欧风) has been widely adopted—but often in an oversimplified and commercialized form. In this episode of the Nordic Asia Podcast, Dr. Heidi Hui Shi discusses her research on digital misinformation and the portrayal of Nordic aesthetics in China. Through corpus linguistics, sentiment analysis, and digital storytelling (DST), Dr. Shi examines how consumer narratives influence public understanding of Nordic design. She highlights the challenges posed by misinformation, the dominance of commercial narratives, and the role of independent creators in countering misleading portrayals. The conversation also explores the broader implications for cultural exchange and how Nordic brands can more effectively engage with Chinese consumers.

« Amitié inébranlable », ce sont les mots utilisés par le Premier ministre indien pour qualifier les relations excellentes entre Paris et New Delhi, basées sur un long partenariat stratégique entre les deux pays, mais également sur une amitié personnelle entre les deux dirigeants, Emmanuel Macron et Narendra Modi. Une « intimité particulière » existe entre les deux pays a indiqué le président français en recevant ce lundi 10 février 2025 (pour la cinquième fois en France) le Premier ministre indien qui a, par ailleurs, co-présidé avec lui le sommet sur l'intelligence artificielle. S'en est suivi un départ des deux dirigeants hier (11 février 2025) à Marseille, avec en ligne de mire d'importants investissements indiens dans le port phocéen et la confirmation de gros contrats d'armement. Pari judicieux ou pari risqué d'établir d'importantes relations stratégiques, économiques et diplomatiques, avec un Premier ministre ultra-nationaliste hindou accusé de dérive autoritaire dans son pays ?Avec nos invités : - Bertrand Badie, politologue, professeur émérite à Sciences Po en Relations internationales- Jean-Luc Racine, directeur de recherche émérite au CNRS et chercheur senior au think tank Asia Centre.

Samedi 25 janvier, Sophie Boisseau du Rocher, maître de conférence à Sciences-Po Paris et chercheur à Asia Centre, Claude Meyer, ancien conseiller au centre Asie de l'IFRI, Jean-Marc Daniel, professeur émérite à l'ESCP, Christian Chavagneux, éditorialiste à alternatives Économiques, et Benaouda Abdeddaïm, éditorialiste BFM Business, étaient les invités, dans l'émission La librairie de l'éco présentée par Emmanuel Lechypre. La librairie de l'éco est à voir ou écouter le samedi sur BFM Business.

Climate change is among the most significant challenges facing modern society, and it impacts everyone across the world.

Why has the Indo-Pacific become the pre-eminent theatre of global geo-strategic and geo-economic competition? What is the interest and role of different actors such as China, Russia, the US, the EU and NATO in the region? How are small island developing states such as the Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, Kiribati, and Vanuatu affected by challenges in the new security environment?

La Chine peut-elle se refermer ? Alors que Xi Jinping et le Parti communiste se réunissaient cette semaine pour faire des choix cruciaux pour l'économie du pays, c'est « la » question de fond qui hante le numéro un chinois : se détacher de la politique de réforme et d'ouverture lancée par Deng Xiaoping dans les années 1980 et qui métamorphosé la Chine de Mao en deuxième puissance économique mondiale et grande rivale des États-Unis. Une biographie de Deng Xiaoping, surnommé « le petit timonier », l'homme fort de la Chine de 1978 au milieu des années 1990, vient justement de sortir aux éditions Tallandier. Elle est signée du sinologue Jean-Pierre Cabestan, professeur à la Hong Kong Baptist University et chercheur au CNRS et à Asia Centre. Dans quelle mesure Xi Jinping veut être l'anti-Deng Xiaoping ? Jean-Pierre-Cabestan répond aux questions de Joris Zylberman.

What identity does the post-2000s Inland Tibet Class (ITC) generation mean? How do Sinophone-Tibetan films articulate the expression of such identity? How does affective visuality mediate the cultural, political, and gender identity formation of female artists of the post-2000s ITC generation? Jinyan Zeng, a researcher at the Centre for East and South-East Asian Studies, Lund University, Sweden, introduces her research in this podcast episode of the Nordic Asia Podcast, hosted by Ning Ao, PhD student at the Centre. The episode is produced by Lisa Sihvonen, student intern at the Centre. China has introduced a policy of Inland Tibet Class (ITC) to educate talented Tibetan pupils from Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR) in Chinese language boarding schools since 1985. Jinyan Zeng's recent article Visualising the Post-2000s Inland Tibet Class Generation focuses on the experiences of female artists, filmmakers, and writers of the ITC who were born in the 1990s and early 2000s. Following the experience of the Sinophone-Tibetan filmmaker Kangdrun in a Chinese language education environment, her films, and Tibetan cultural communities, Jinyan Zeng's research contributes to a fresh understanding of modern Tibetan authors' generational relationships; the expressive styles of female Sinophone-Tibetan authors. Her gender analysis of the ITC generation critically contributes to Tibetan studies and China studies both theoretically and methodologically. A new volume titled Feminist Activism in the Post-2010s Sinosphere (Bloomsbury Academic), co-edited by Jinyan Zeng with Elisabeth Lund Engebretsen came out in December 2024.

The episode is produced by Lisa Sihvonen, student intern at the Centre. China has introduced a policy of Inland Tibet Class (ITC) to educate talented Tibetan pupils from Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR) in Chinese language boarding schools since 1985. Jinyan Zeng's recent article Visualising the Post-2000s Inland Tibet Class Generation focuses on the experiences of female artists, filmmakers, and writers of the ITC who were born in the 1990s and early 2000s. Following the experience of the Sinophone-Tibetan filmmaker Kangdrun in a Chinese language education environment, her films, and Tibetan cultural communities, Jinyan Zeng's research contributes to a fresh understanding of modern Tibetan authors' generational relationships; the expressive styles of female Sinophone-Tibetan authors. Her gender analysis of the ITC generation critically contributes to Tibetan studies and China studies both theoretically and methodologically. A new volume titled Feminist Activism in the Post-2010s Sinosphere (Bloomsbury Academic), co-edited by Jinyan Zeng with Elisabeth Lund Engebretsen came out in December 2024.

Une victoire sans éclat pour Narendra Modi….c'est ainsi que l'on peut décrire la situation au terme des élections générales qui se sont déroulées sur plusieurs semaines en Inde et viennent de se terminer. Près d'un milliard d'électeurs étaient appelés aux urnes. Le BJP, le puissant parti du Premier Ministre qui est aussi la plus grande formation politique au monde avec 180 millions de membres, est certes arrivé en tête du scrutin mais pour la première fois depuis dix ans celui qui gouvernait sans partage, n'obtient pas à lui seul, la majorité. Il lui manque 32 sièges pour cela. Il lui en fallait 272. Il n'en a que 240. Usure du pouvoir, campagne sans élan, échec personnel pour Narendra Modi ? Le premier ministre indien n'en remporte pas moins sa 3è victoire. Reste que les questions liées à l'emploi et à l'inflation n'ont pas suffisamment été ses priorités alors qu'elles l'étaient de l'opposition. Le chômage n'a jamais été aussi haut depuis les années 1970 en Inde et le secteur manufacturier est faible. Le pouvoir autoritaire de Modi va-t-il pouvoir continuer à s'exercer ?Invités : Christophe Jaffrelot, directeur de recherche au CERI de Sciences Po et au CNRS, professeur au  King's College de Londres Jean-Luc Racine, directeur de recherche émérite au CNRS et Chercheur senior à Asia Centre.

What do the election results mean for the Yoon government's ability to implement its policy agenda?
