What Dominique Pagani says

Dominique Pagani proposes the expression "Atlanticist imperialism" as the right word in place of "the West"1. By it he means concrete institutions, NATO, the IMF and the World Bank, which in his view are waging a single war, from Ukraine to Gaza, against Russia and then against China1. He distinguishes this imperialism, which runs the world, from the Americans themselves: it can also be fought in the United States2. The term also extends beyond Europe and the United States, since it includes Japan or an African dictator funded by the CIA3. He describes this imperialism as having its back to the wall in the face of China: it lives off the control of financial flows and therefore has an interest in escalation4. In a 2025 session, he adds that it is the West taken as a whole that is in crisis, not France alone5. From 2024 to 2025, he continues to prefer this term to "the West".
