Mohammed Loulichki, Salma Daoudi 

Constituant l’un des rendez-vous phares de cette année 2020, au vu de la conjoncture domestique et internationale, l’élection présidentielle américaine s’inscrit comme un tournant géopolitique important, soulevant de nombreuses questions à propos de l'avenir de la politique étrangère des Etats-Unis.

En conversation avec Mohammed Loulichki, ce podcast aborde la transition politique entre l’administration du Président Trump et celle du Président-Elu Biden, ébauche certains points saillants de la diplomatie américaine par rapport auxquels un changement perceptible de position peut s’opérer, et aborde enfin les récents développements des relations marocco-américaines, dressant les implications de la proclamation de reconnaissance américaine de la souveraineté du Royaume sur son Sahara.

    Brazil’s presidential election, which concluded on October 25, 2026, was above all a digital battle. This is nothing new; the impact of social media on elections has been widely analyzed since Barack Obama's 2008 win marked a turning point for digital campaigning worldwide. Almost two decades later, social media is an entirely different breed, with a life of its own – and still very little regulation within electoral politics. The danger, however, is that digital players now also in ...

    Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva’s victory brings to an end one of the most closely contested elections in Brazil’s recent history. Before any broader analysis, however, a qualification is necessary. Supreme Court Justice Cristiano Zanin’s controversial decision to extend voting hours sparked debate over the electoral process. Although the measure was not mathematically decisive in Lula’s come-from-behind victory, the episode risks fuelling challenges to the result and further eroding poli ...

    Strategic Hedging as Rational Diplomacy
    Authors
    Marcus Vinicius de Freitas
    October 22, 2026
    Strategic hedging is rational when it preserves a worthwhile choice at a tolerable cost while respecting existing commitments. Drawing on the literature on hedging and Latin American autonomy, this Policy Brief examines contrasting illustrations of that proposition. It distinguishes ambiguity about future alignment from uncertainty about existing obligations and explains how clearly bounded commitments can reconcile autonomy with credibility. The cases reveal different vulnerabiliti ...

    L’art de conserver ses options: vers une approche africaine du Chief Geopolitical Officer
    Authors
    Florent Parmentier
    October 12, 2026
    Cet article soutient que le Chief Geopolitical Officer (CGO) doit être repensé à partir de l’expérience des entreprises africaines. Dans un environnement multipolaire et fragmenté, leur principal défi n’est pas seulement la gestion des risques, mais la préservation de plusieurs options stratégiques simultanément selon une logique de hedging. Trois modèles de CGO sont à distinguer : l’intermédiation (Office chérifien des Phosphates (OCP), Tanger Med), l’intégration régionale (Ethiopi ...

    In the two years since the fall of Bashar al-Assad in Syria, Russia has restructured its Mediterranean presence. Although Russia’s limited and increasingly conditional access to the Khmeimim and Tartus facilities in Syria has been preserved, its presence in the country has morphed from Assad’s ‘patron-client’ configuration to a more negotiated engagement. Simultaneously, Russia has upgraded its force-projection and logistical infrastructure in eastern Libya, giving it an access path ...
