حديث الثلاثاء: إفريقيا والدبلوماسية المتعددة الأطراف

02
May 2023
Imane Lahrich & Mohammed Loulichki

بمناسبة اليوم الدولي للتعددية والدبلوماسية من أجل السلام، قررنا تخصيص الحلقة إلى إفريقيا ومبدأ تعددية الاطراف في سياق اوضاع السلم والأمن الهشة في منطقة الساحل وانتشار عدم الاستقرار في البحيرات الافريقية الكبرى، بالإضافة إلى عجز مجلس الأمن التابع للأمم المتحدة عن مواجهة الحرب المستمرة التي شنتها روسيا على أوكرانيا، ما يؤكد أزمة تعددية الأطراف. فمن بين التحديات الراهنة لهذا المبدأ في إفريقيا، نذكر ربما فشل إدارة المراحل الانتقالية بعد عدد من التغييرات غير الدستورية التي عرفتها دول القارة، تداخل المسؤوليات بين الاتحاد الأفريقي والكتل الإقليمية والتداعيات العملية لمبدأ التبعية، بالإضافة إلى صعوبات نظم الأمن الإقليمية في مواجهة التطرف العنيف. فكيف يمكننا تعريف هذا النهج حتى نميزه بين التعاون الدولي في إطار احترام السيادة الوطنية؟ هل الديناميكيات السياسية للمنظمات الدولية تحد بشكل فعال من تأثير أفريقيا المحتمل على الساحة الدولية؟ هل تحتاج إفريقيا إلى استراتيجية جديدة لمشاركتها مع الأمم المتحدة والمنظمات الدولية الأخرى؟ أم أن التحديات الخاصة بأفريقيا تتطلب أن يعيد المجتمع الدولي التفكير في مقاربته الجماعية تجاه أفريقيا؟ ثم كيف يمكن تعزيز نهج تعددية الاطراف حتى يكون اكثر فعالية ؟

    With India looking more towards Africa as a home for sustainable partners, it is also looking at diversifying the areas of collaboration with several African countries, especially with Morocco. As early as 1967, India’s then Vice-President Zakir Hussain visited Morocco and set the tone for engagement between both countries. The latter has established diplomatic relations based on mutual understanding, tolerance and respect. Since then, the two countries have enjoyed fruitful relatio ...

    Les relations du Japon avec le Maghreb sont alimentées par des éléments de projection très diversifiés, inégaux, vers des pays et des sociétés qui intéressent le Japon par eux-mêmes, mais dont l’importance est renforcée par leurs articulations avec les maillages, africain et moyen oriental. La décennie actuelle ne constitue pas le moment le plus fort de ces relations. La coopération entre le Japon et les pays du Maghreb reste significative, cependant. Les possibilités de développeme ...

    Caribbean and African ties run deep. They are based on a shared history, culture, and sense of a common identity forged by the slave trade which forcibly relocated more than 10 million Africans to the New World, in the process, creating large centres of African Diaspora in the Caribbean and elsewhere. The common historical experiences of slavery and colonialism inspired formation of the Pan-African Movement in the first half of the 1900’s led by the African Diaspora outside of Afric ...

    The cooperation between Brazil and Morocco dates back to the 19th century, when Moroccan migrants came to Brazil attracted by the then booming exploration of rubber in the Amazon rainforest. In 1861, the Brazilian government opened its first consulate in Tangier.  But it was only since 1961, with the Moroccan independence, that the bilateral relations began to diversify. At the political sphere, there has been a fluid dialogue, driven by convergent views on several issues related t ...

    The escalating China-US trade dispute: economic and geopolitical implications for Sub-Saharan Africa

    The trade tensions between the United States and China will cause only minor immediate damage to their giant economies. However, tariffs have important and diverse effects on individual sectors and cause heightened uncertainty. The main adverse effects on Sub-Saharan Africa will therefore be through global investor confidence, economic growth and commodity prices, and these effects could be severe if the dispute escalates further and endangers the rules-based trading system. The tra ...

    The opening of the border between Ethiopia and Eritrea symbolized an important phase in the newfound relations between the two. Since their rapprochement in June 2018, events have occurred at a frenzied pace, yet much was still in the political arena and removed from demonstrating tangible benefits to average citizens. By opening the border, the leaders of Ethiopia and Eritrea changed that. Yet the border opening also reveals an insight into a previously isolated and largely closed ...

    L’arène africaine n’est qu’un épisode dans le feuilleton sino-américain, mais l’importance du continent comme opportunité pour les grandes puissances en fait également un espace où s’expriment les rivalités de ces puissances. C’est sous cette enseigne que pourrait se lire l’amorce du retour de l’Afrique dans l’agenda des intérêts américains. ...

    Lors du Forum Russie-Afrique, tenu récemment à Moscou, le ministre russe des Affaires étrangères, Sergey Lavrov, a souligné que les relations entre son pays et ses partenaires africains ne seront pas “impactées par des facteurs extérieurs”. Venant du chef de la diplomatie russe depuis  2004, la formule peut paraître courte mais, à demi-mot, elle est porteuse de la détermination de Moscou de renforcer sa présence en Afrique, surtout que le forum de Moscou s’est tenu en préparation d ...

    These Sober Sisters are not Attracted by Cosmetics Perhaps they were two dozen women, possibly less. They were glued to the wooden floor, just like geese or storks flying in formation, being pushed by time and the winds and currents above the clouds from the wintery Europe to Morocco. No sound or movement by the frail bodies, dressed in their simple brown habit. Just the arms stretched out, and their eyes focused on a statue of Mary, the ever-blessed mother of Jesus Christ, son of ...
