World 3/24

2015

What responsibility do multinationals have in conflicts, and in developing countries? For decades they have played a dark role in many parts of the world, has their behaviour improved? We study specific cases: in Congo (where coltan is still exported illegally) and in Colombia (where the construction of a port has ended the way of life of many premisses). In the programme, we also travel to one of the least known countries in Europe, Belarus, the last dictatorship on the continent that has just been held\ - ‘elections.’ How do you do your president, Alexander Lukashekenko to survive 20 years in power? Quina responsabilitat tenen les multinacionals en els conflictes, i en els països en vies de desenvolupament? Durant dècades han jugat un fosc paper en moltes parts del món, ha millorat el seu comportament? Estudiem casos concrets: al Congo (on se segueix exportant coltan de forma il·legal) i a Colòmbia (on la construcció d'un port ha acabat amb la forma de vida de molts locals). En el programa, també viatgem fins a un dels països menys coneguts d'Europa, Bielorússia, l'última dictadura del continent que acaba de celebrar "eleccions". Com s'ho fa el seu president, Alexander Lukashekenko per sobreviure 20 anys en el poder?
