L'INTELLIGENCE STRATÉGIQUE - REVISITER NOS FUTURS SUD; UN REGARD PROSPECTIF SUR LE TEMPS 
October 15, 2024

Dans le vaste domaine des études prospectives, la notion du temps se révèle être un pilier fondamental, orchestre d'une symphonie complexe et variée. Cette notion n'est pas seulement un cadre dans lequel s'inscrivent nos actions et nos pensées; elle est une boussole qui guide notre capacité à anticiper et à modeler le futur. Les études prospectives, en quête de comprendre et de préparer les futurs possibles, se basent sur cette conception du temps pour éclairer et influencer la prise de décision dans le présent. L'analyse des horizons temporels, des tendances et des cycles, la construction de scénarios futurs, ainsi que la compréhension de la temporalité de nos actions, constituent les clés de voûte de cette discipline.

    Enhancing the strategic thinking on issues related to stability and security at the African level requires challenging the predominant classical conception of security towards a more comprehensive, supportive and inclusive approach. While traditional strategies are often based on military responses and hard power, it is necessary to emphasize soft power in all its dimensions, placing the individual at the heart of all conflict prevention and management methods. Some authors argue f ...
