The World At Home
Charles Laffiteau's Bigger Picture
If nothing else, during his first few weeks in office President Donald Trump has already succeeded in rattling both friends and foes alike in America and around the world. While it remains to be seen if his frenetic pace and chaotic management style will lead to the kind of change his supporters are hoping for, all of his executive orders and adversarial tweets are aimed at solidifying the support of the older, less-educated white voters who put him in office. In other words, there is a method to President Trump’s madness.
New UN head means a chance for reform
The new head of the United Nations faces the mammoth task of tacking a world dominated by conflicts and humanitarian disasters, including the global involvement in the civil war in Syria and the attendant refugee crisis, via which more than 5,000 people have died crossing the Mediterranean to the freedom of Europe in the past 12 months.
Education begins, and belongs, in the home
How can society be so myopic to the notion that institutions are not the right place to educate their children with the knowledge they will really need to face the world? So many essential activities can be employed to give the best possible education to our beloved children without sending them away from the comfort of home.
The World At Home : Charles Laffiteau's Bigger Picture
In contrast to some of his other cabinet appointments, US President Donald Trump’s choices to run our country’s intelligence, national security and defence establishments all possessed the kind of government and military experience that one would expect the leaders of these key organisations to have. However, even though Trump’s top foreign policy choice has no such experience, I actually think Rex Tillerson may turn out to be one of the most inspired cabinet selections.
Harnessing Irish farming know-how to end world hunger and poverty
Irish agricultural knowledge can play a role in ending hunger and poverty for millions of people in the developing world.

2016 sees rise in numbers of dead or missing migrants
The number of refugees who died or are missing worldwide rose to 7,495 in 2016, according to a new report. Provisional figures from the IOM’s Missing Migrants Project show 1,755 more migrants died last year compared to the 2015 figure of 5,740.
New year means new start for Ireland’s many cultures
From The burning of scarecrows, kissing at the stroke of midnight and swinging fireballs, to gobbling grapes and throwing bread – when it comes to new year traditions, strange and interesting things happen all over the world. And even apart from its increasingly diverse population, Ireland is not exempt from such interesting observances. Celebrating in a pub on New Year’s Eve is just the thing as far as Brian Dowling is concerned.
Viva Cuba! The late Fidel Castro’s Cuban revolution was an inspiration to liberation struggles the world over, writes Michael McGowan
I am sure that the vast majority of the people of Ireland are proud of President Michael D Higgins, who promptly sent condolences to the people of Cuba following the death at the age of 90 of Fidel Castro, whom he described as “a giant amongst global leaders”.
