Le Sahel face aux tendances Al Qaeda et Daech: Quel dénouement possible ?
January 5, 2017

Le paysage terroriste au Sahel se caractérise par une multiplicité d’acteurs qui déstabilisent les pays de la région. Malgré que chaque groupe terroriste possède des spécificités d’action et des zones d’influence propres à lui, il n’en demeure pas moins que deux grandes tendances idéologiques s’affrontent au Sahel. D’une part, Al Qaeda au Maghreb Islamique et d’autre part, l’organisation Etat islamique. Cependant, certains groupes continuent d’agir indépendamment des allégeances qu’ils ont prêtées en refusant de suivre les ordres de leurs leaders hiérarchiques. Face à cette complexité des acteurs terroristes qui sévissent dans le Sahel, ce Policy Brief se propose d’examiner la situation en levant le voile sur le système des allégeances, la relation entre les différents groupes, mais également, le jeu des acteurs étatiques dans leur lutte contre ces différentes nébuleuses.

    How close are we to the apocalypse, human culture, democracy, wisdom, thrown back in time and reduced to the mind of Neanderthals? Remember them, 40 000 years ago? Or back to the days of the dinosaurs, 233 million years gone by, yet unforgotten, thanks to Hollywood. Gone are the mammoths, the cave men, the pest and cholera and wars, which lasted 30 years. Compared with the devastation of the “black death”, a bubonic plague pandemic (1347 to 1353), which caused the death of up to 20 ...

    Some of the golden Buddhas seemed to smile; many of the 2200 pagodas and temples surviving in the ancient city were fighting the damage of time and earthquakes. The road we took from historic Bagan to Mandalay, 178 kilometers away had more holes than a Swiss cheese, and the driver was as reluctant as a Trappist monk to answer my questions. When I noticed a group of destitute, drawn looking men, pale faces and hollow cheeks, cutting trees and moving giant rocks by hand towards trucks ...

    South Africa’s economy is in crisis. Like much of the world, it has been battered by the COVID-19 pandemic when its economy has already been weakened by years of low growth, high unemployment and rising inequality after the global financial crisis of 2007-08. At this difficult juncture, the Africa Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) offers it the opportunity of becoming a continental growth pole, not just a regional growth pole which it is already. This opportunity could not have c ...

    « ItalyGate », that was it, the key to unravel the conspiracy, « the greatest scandal in the history of the United States », as Donald Trump declared on Twitter.

    Depuis l’accession au trône du Roi Mohammed VI, l’Afrique s’est transformée en priorité de la diplomatie marocaine. Sur le plan économique, l’Afrique est devenue le prolongement naturel du Maroc en termes d’investissements et d’implantations. Pascal Chaigneau s’attarde sur les relations affaiblies Europe-Afrique, l’ambitieuse relation Chine-Afrique ainsi que les relations entre la Russie, les Etats-Unis, la Turquie ou encore les pays du Golf et l’Afrique. Ce chapitre traite égalemen ...

    Mauritius  is  a  refutation  of  the  proposition  that  food  self-sufficiency  at  all  costs  is  the  way  to  achieve  food  security.  Mauritius,  a  trade-dependent  island  economy,  imports  around  three  quarters  of  its  food  consumption. It is food self-sufficient in only local vegetables and fruits. Post-independence governments have succeeded in virtually eliminating extreme poverty. Mauritius has grown at an annual average of 5.3% or 4.4% in per-capita terms for d ...

    Catastrophic Consequences Increasing wildfires, a sign of climate change, are reducing forests to ashes.

Each year an average of 122 million hectares of forests are af ...
