C’est dans les années 1990 qu’il prend toute son ampleur cependant : au lendemain de la chute de l’URSS et à la veille des bouleversements du 11 septembre 2001, alors que la puissance chinoise commence à s’envoler sur les terrains économiques et militaires, la communauté de politique étrangère américaine multiplie les analyses sur ce nouveau grand acteur des relati ...

Indeed, while specificitie ...

    Endowed with half of the world’s known oil and gas reserves, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region became – particularly during the second half of the twentieth century – a cornerstone of the global energy architecture (Yergin, 1991, 2011; Maugeri, 2006). This architecture is currently undergoing a structural transformation, prompted by two different forces: decarbonisation policies and technological developments.
