For centuries, Europe has dominated the world, but after the catastrophes of the twentieth century, has had to adapt to it. The ambition of power, inscribed in its cultural roots, has not disappeared, but was transfigured into the money. The euro, in fact, with its budgetary rules laid down at Maastricht, was designed to ensure Europe a regular and infinite growth, in order to excel in the global competition. But the global economic crisis highlights the limits of this project, which is in danger of no longer being a success story but, on the contrary, a mortal danger.

The Sunday newspaper is an often-neglected success story of the twentieth century news media landscape. The popularity and profitability of Sunday papers grew throughout the century to establish themselves as flagships of cultural and commercial trends and an essential complement to most national daily productions. On account of their production cycle, Sunday newspapers were always able to do things that the daily press with its punishing routines and pressure of deadlines were never able to achieve. Mapped onto the characteristic social class and politically stratified perspectives of British and Irish newspaper reading publics, the Sunday newspaper became a prominent vehicle for the experiments in layout and content after the full computerization of newspapers in the mid-1980s; lifestyle, commentary, colour photography all were pioneered in this format. The range of geographical variants of the Sunday newspaper are also considered from the regional Sunday Sun published in Newcastle from 1919 to the Irish Sunday Independent and Scottish Sunday Post to the migration of English titles across Britain into Ireland with increasing national specialization in their content and appeal. The chapter also considers the varying reasons for the failure of high-profile Sunday papers such as the Sunday Correspondent and the News of the World.

Interview with the Indian architect Anupama Kundoo who develops her practice, research, and teaching in a strongly interconnected way. Her works starts from two principles: the low impact for the environment of her proposals and the strong contention that she establishes with the socioeconomic context in which they are.  Besides, she has developed her work in different cultural contexts around the world, which gives a wide view to the issues of contemporary architecture. From this point of view, Kundoo reflects a necessary approach of understanding Architecture that, ten years after the global economic crisis, moves away from the positions of the start architect system and faces the profession’s future from her personal attitude.

Analytical agencies, as well as international organizations, have identified significant threats to the development of the world economy, increasing the likelihood of a new global financial crisis in late 2020–early 2021. The main challenges to the system come from trade wars that could lead to a crisis in the international system of trade regulation, a decrease in the effectiveness of public policy instruments, and a deterioration in the dynamics of global economic growth. An important factor leading to a slowdown in the global economy in 2020 will also be the coronavirus pandemic, although it is difficult, in the first half of 2020, to assess its final impact. The combination of these negative factors, coupled with the unresolved problems of the 2008 global financial crisis, significantly increases the likelihood of a new global economic crisis which could surpass the Great Depression of the 1930s. This study systematizes the main forecasts by international organizations and analytical agencies for the growth of the world economy and considers various theoretical concepts to identify the symptoms of the impending crisis. Ultimately, this article offers options for reducing the negative impact of the crisis on Russia. In connection with the coronavirus pandemic, preliminary estimates have been made of the likely damage to the world economy and the prospects for its recovery.

Thus, the coronavirus epidemic, which led to the widespread introduction of self-isolation, accelerated the process of digitalization of the world and domestic economy. One of the areas of digitalization will be discussed in this article.
