    Le 1er octobre 2023 a marqué le début de la phase transitoire du Mécanisme d'Ajustement Carbone aux Frontières (CBAM en anglais) de l'Union européenne (UE).

On September 8 the clock had shown 23:11 Marrakesh time, and then Morocco cried, united in mourning, remembering 3,000 noble brothers and sisters, who turned into dark figures, victims of a horrendous earthquake which affected 6.6 million people. A national heartbeat later, war-torn Libya joined the pain, more ...

    Quelle africanité pour les Industries culturelles et créatives au Maroc ?
    Authors
    Driss Ksikes
    October 30, 2023
    Interroger le lien entre le Maroc et son continent d’appartenance, l’Afrique, à partir de l’entrée des Industries culturelles et créatives (ICC), nous met d’emblée devant la nécessité d’interroger autant les concepts que les contextes d’où elles sont énoncées. Il nous oblige, par souci de rigueur et de justesse, de souligner les paradoxes qui les sous-tendent. Car par-delà l’appartenance géographique, des (dis)continuités historiques et culturelles, l’africanité du Maro ...
