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.

    En parcourant le sommaire de cet ouvrage, et plus encore en prenant connaissance de son contenu, le lecteur réalise qu’il s’agit bel et bien d’un miroir du continent africain. La diversité des plumes renvoie à une large palette de thématiques sur lesquelles les auteurs, académiciens, experts et autres praticiens, livrent leurs analyses. Le tout, pour un décryptage le plus pointu possible de la dynamique qui traverse l’Afrique et des tendances qui s’y dessinent. Nous ne sommes que t ...
  • The Parrot and Commodity Prices

    “Teach a parrot the terms ‘supply and demand’ and you’ve got an economist.” That parrot can explain to us what is happening with commodity prices (Chart 1, left side). That is, while agricultural and industrial metal prices - particularly copper - plummeted on average by over 10% since June, energy prices - especially oil - have risen nearly 20% since the beginning of the year. Brent's barrel price is now triple what it was in early 2016. Check the latest World Bank Commodities Pric ...

    La seconde thématique des Dialogues stratégiques, dont la 6ème édition s’est tenue le 4 octobre 2018 à Paris, a porté sur les réformes en cours au sein de l’organisation panafricaine. La rencontre est d’abord revenue sur le contexte global dans lequel opère l’Union africaine (UA). La géopolitique en Afrique n’est pas seulement menée par les ex-puissances coloniales et la Chine, mais bien par les pays africains eux-mêmes, a ainsi rappelé l’ancien ministre français des Affaires étran ...

    « Amérique latine, crises et sorties de crises », telle était la première des deux thématiques des 6èmes Dialogues stratégiques, organisés le 4 avril par HEC Paris (Centre de géopolitique) et OCP Policy Center. Un tableau mitigé a été dressé, avec des signes de reprise et une croissance supérieure à 2 % qui n’empêchent pas des situations de crise comme au Brésil, au Nicaragua ou au Vénézuela. Crise d’un modèle d’oligarchies anti-capitalistes Au Vénézuela, la corruption paraît si e ...

    TEARS OF JOY CHANGED INTO THOSE OF PAIN January 28, 1986. It was just another day in the whirlpool of news and speculations of a new Foreign Correspondent to be assigned to the White House. Shivering on his way to the most important political center of the Western World, resisting arctic cold and snow on the way to work, hardly ever seeing the President himself. Instead, he found himself on this fateful day in a rendez-vous with Tom Foley, majority leader in the House of Representa ...

    “ARE THEY PLAYING US? I DO NOT KNOW” There they were, the North Koreans, covered by red flags, and more red flags — a Hollywood production indeed. Were the soldiers singing? There was nothing to sing about since they're marching for endless hours, being scrutinized by cameras and bothered by aching pains of hunger, unable to speak and stimulate their voice. The colonel in charge of the marchers may discover some rusty spot on a belt buckle or a truck on parade may run out of fuel - ...

    Le présent Policy Brief propose un nouveau regard sur la mobilité africaine vers l’Europe, en proposant d’investir dans le capital « migrants » à travers la formation professionnelle des candidats à la migration, principalement ceux parmi eux motivés par la recherche des opportunités d’emploi en Europe. Cette qualification devrait leur permettre de développer des compétences sollicitées dans le marché de travail européen. L’idée d’implantation, dans certains pays africains, de cent ...

  • How to heal the Brazilian economy

    September 18, 2018
    If I were to synthesize the current situation of the Brazilian economy in one sentence, I would say: “it is suffering from a combination of ‘productivity anemia’1 and ‘public sector obesity2’". On the one hand, the mediocre performance of productivity in Brazil in recent decades has limited its GDP growth potential. On the other, the gluttony for expanding public spending has become increasingly incompatible with such limits in the potential expansion of GDP, particularly since the ...
