Gouvernance et biens communs : repenser la coopération dans un monde fragmenté

January 16, 2025

Alors que les défis globaux – changement climatique, transition énergétique, montée des conflits – s'accumulent, les outils multilatéraux peinent à offrir des solutions efficaces. La montée du protectionnisme et des intérêts nationaux exacerbe ces tensions, tandis que l'Afrique, riche en ressources stratégiques, s'impose comme un acteur incontournable. La souveraineté économique, la transformation locale des ressources et l'équité dans les échanges deviennent des impératifs pour une gouvernance mondiale qui réponde véritablement aux besoins des populations et des générations futures.

    Venezuela holds crucial presidential elections on July 28. The results might substantially alter the political system in that country, since, for the first time since 1998, the opposition candidate has a clear chance of winning the vote. Why has the opposition been unable to win elections in that country for almost three decades now? And why is it on the verge of winning elections this time? What is the international dimension of this electoral process? How might it impact Morocco? ...

    In January 2024, gunmen invaded a TV studio in Ecuador, seized journalists and staff as hostages, and interrupted the regular programs. That episode highlighted the rise of violence in Ecuador, a country that was until very recently calm and peaceful. In this paper, I place the rise of violence in Ecuador within the context of what some refer to as the endemic violence in Latin America. I explore its risks, consequences, and the ways it could be tackled. I also emphasize some of the ...
