A special highlight of this April issue is the article on the various trials to reform the United Nations. The other article in the International section deals with the political situation of Turkey, holding presidential, parliamentary and local elections in 2007; the author looks at the issues of secularism, the Kurdish question, the relations to Greece and Cyprus, and the perspectives for European integration.

Also of interest: the article on the French social model by Bruhnes; and the essay of the month by Pierron on sustainable development as a form of constructive utopia.

The articles section is complemented by a "Carnet" which reviews topical cultural events in France such as theatre pieces, films, television programmes, exhibitions, concerts and books, both fiction and non-fiction.
