L’importance des politiques agricoles en termes de sécurité, de défense et de souveraineté
Authors
May 11, 2016

Est-ce que l’agriculture n’a effectivement plus de place dans les composantes des stratégies nationales de défense ? Si l’exemple européen et celui de l’OCDE nous poussent vers une réponse affirmative; le contre-exemple nous vient des Etats-Unis d’Amérique qui considèrent l’agriculture et les questions alimentaires comme faisant partie intégrante de la sécurité nationale.

    La réputation, concept majeur s’il en est, est un indicateur de l’estime accordée à une personne physique mais aussi à une entreprise ou encore à une entité étatique.
