Abstract:
This research proposes for international analysis, a methodology to identify important matters of contemporary geopolitics. In this sense, this research has been inspired on the point of view of the main international agencies and taking into account relevant events that recently have happened.
This research is qualitative, cross-sectional, it is non-experimental and descriptive. It is qualitative because it provides a series of events and does emphasis in the later impacts. It is cross-sectional because it used economic indicators and press releases corresponding to the year 2011. It is non experimental because the sources of data have not been manipulated and have been obtained from good qualified sources of information. It is descriptive because this research figures out why some events occurred in 2011 like the called “jasmine revolution” and the debt crisis in Europe, are some of the main important matters in our contemporary world, from an innovative point of view based in three pillars: the international organizations press releases, taking in to account the interdependence among countries, and taking into account main facts that have occurred during the mentioned year.
