    Les élections marocaines de septembre 2021, ont orchestré une recomposition politique d’une ampleur inédite dans l’échiquier politique, depuis l’adoption de la Constitution de 2011 qui a défini les principes de la monarchie constitutionnelle. Elles symbolisent l’effondrement du Parti de la Justice et du Développement (PJD), formation qui a dominé le paysage politique marocain depuis le scrutin législatif de 2011, ainsi que l’affirmation des formations libérales proches du centre-dro ...

    Lucy Williamson, a BBC reporter on assignment in the southern French town Béziérs, was surprised when she observed about a hundred people lined up in  front of  the auditorium where a “polémiste  réactionaire” (Le Temps, September  24, 2021), was scheduled  to speak. They waited and waited -no more seats. “Not bad for a man, who has not declared his candidacy yet”, noted the BBC-journalist. (October 19, 2021). The show was for free, and a show it was.

    Après une longue période de prix atones, le café a vu ses cours se raffermir au cours de l’année 2020 et du premier trimestre 2021, avant de flamber durant l’été et l’automne. Il renouait alors avec des plus hauts niveaux depuis 2011, date de la fin du dernier « super-cycle des matières premières (2002-2011). Tandis que la demande progresse structurellement, l’offre s’est repliée, pénalisée par une conjonction de facteurs climatiques, géopolitiques et, bien évidemment, sanitaires en ...
