Session 2 : Dé/mondialisation et sécurité économique face aux défis de la COVID-19

December 27, 2020

9ème édition des Dialogues Stratégiques : La démondialisation Depuis 2016, Le Policy Center for the New South et HEC Center for Geopolitics organisent chaque année deux éditions des « Dialogues Stratégiques ». Cette plateforme d’analyse et d’échange réunit des experts, des chercheurs provenant de différents think-tanks et du monde académique, des praticiens, ainsi que des décideurs politiques pour débattre des grandes questions géopolitiques et sécuritaires à l’échelle internationale, ainsi que des problématiques d’importance commune à la fois pour l’Europe et l’Afrique. Le cycle de séminaires a pour vocation d’offrir un environnement orienté vers les politiques publiques « policy-oriented », où les panélistes se réunissent dans un cadre interactif et constructif pour confronter et enrichir leurs analyses respectives. Cette collaboration est issue du partenariat tissé entre les deux centres de réflexion, en vue de favoriser le dialogue scientifique et multidisciplinaire et de contribuer à la production d’analyses pertinentes sur des problématiques politiques et majeures.

    War has started again in the Caucasus, a region between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea consisting of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and parts of Southern Russia. It is a kind of mountainous border between Asia and Europe, in a region with vast oil resources that was conquered by Russia a few hundred years ago. The fighting that has erupted is over an enclave known as Nagorno-Karabakh, a remote territory without strategic value that is nevertheless, as writer Andrew Higgins conclud ...

    Whether President Trump is reelected or not, the United States will, sooner or later, revert to a traditonalist foreign policy of openness and alliances. If Joe Biden beats Donald Trump on November 3, as he is expected to do, the United States will return to a traditionalist brand of foreign policy: one of openness, support for multilateralism, and constructive engagement with allies. But even if Biden doesn’t winwhich is possible—and four more years of Trump’s America First polici ...

    La pandémie de la Covid-19 a mis en exergue les limites de la « coopération internationale » et du multilatéralisme, cédant la place à une possible émergence de la coopération bilatérale, voire régionale, et à la mise en œuvre de Complexes régionaux de sécurité. La configuration actuelle du monde en fait un village global, où les Etats sont à l’image de leurs nations, plus connectés et interdépendants. Il est, certes, vrai que la mondialisation ne peut disparaître, mais peut, en rev ...

In the past, Hollywood took the lead in dreaming up such scenarios. But in early August, the U.S. State Department offered a $10 million reward for information leading “to the identification or location of any person, who works with or for a foreign government for the purpose of interfering with U.S. elections through certain illegal cyber act ...

    Turkey is flexing its muscles in the Eastern Mediterranean in a dispute ostensibly about energy resources. The dispute has triggered fears of conflict between old rivals Turkey (80 million inhabitants) and Greece (10 million inhabitants). The situation is serious enough for German foreign secretary Heiko Maas to warn that “the least spark can lead to catastrophe”—even war between NATO partners and neighbors. Ankara seems ready to impose its growing naval power, while Athens is ready ...
