    La défaite des organisations terroristes au Moyen-Orient est attendue même s’elle prendra encore quelques temps, tellement Daech et Jabhat Fath Al Sham montrent de la résistance. La première du fait de ses équipements et de ses tactiques de guérillas, la seconde du fait que depuis qu’elle n’est plus une filiale d’Al-Qaeda a pu rallier d’autres groupes syriens. Les deux organisations résistent également parce qu’elles sont renforcées par des milliers de Combattants Terroristes Etrang ...

    Si les produits énergétiques sont de toute évidence au cœur des relations géopolitiques, d’autres « commodities » ne peuvent être négligées pour expliquer certaines évolutions de la scène économique et politique internationale. L’acier compte parmi celles-ci et ce, depuis le XIX siècle. Qu’en est-il aujourd’hui ? Dans un contexte d’une demande interne atone, l’expansion considérable de la production chinoise mais également de ses exportations pèsent lourdement sur la santé des sidér ...

    Multilateralism: what is the political (geo) resonance for steel?
    Authors
    Yves Jégourel
    January 12, 2017
    While energy products are clearly at the heart of geopolitical relations, other commodities should be taken into account to explain certain changes in the international economic and political environment. This is the case for steel since the 19th century. What about today? In a context of sluggish domestic demand, the considerable expansion of Chinese production and exports weigh heavily on the health of steelmakers, which are "historic" producers. Antidumping measures have thus bee ...

    Multiple players that destabilize the countries in the region characterize the terrorist landscape in the Sahel. Despite the fact that each terrorist group has particular areas of action and zones of influence, nevertheless two main ideological tendencies confront each other in the Sahel: on one hand, Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, and on the other, the Islamic State (IS) organization (also known as Daesh). However, some groups continue to act independently of the allegiances they ...

    Le paysage énergétique du Maroc a connu une évolution rapide au cours des dernières décennies. La croissance démographique, l'industrialisation et la hausse du niveau de vie, qui se sont accompagnés d'une augmentation des taux d'accès à l'électricité, ainsi que de taux élevés d'exode rural, ont tous contribué à l'expansion des besoins énergétiques du Maroc. Étant voisin d'une Algérie riche en pétrole et en gaz à l'Est, et d'une Europe avide d'énergie au nord de la Méditerranée, le M ...
