L’Afrique est plurielle, comme le sont les investissements chinois sur son continent. Cette étude montre que, contrairement à ce que l’on mettait en avant durant la décennie 2010, ces investissements ne se limitent pas à l’exploitation du sous-sol africain. Les opérateurs chinois, privilégiant le long terme, se montrent le plus souvent patients et discrets, ne ciblant pas les seuls investissements miniers. Concernant les secteurs principalement bénéficiaires de ces investissements, cette étude en recense une dizaine, le secteur des transports et celui de l’énergie mobilisant à eux seuls 60 % de l’enveloppe sur la période 2005-2013. Enfin, aujourd’hui l’Algérie et l’Ethiopie sont les deux pays principalement concernés par cette présence.

Cette analyse a été initialement publiée dans le rapport " MONNAIES, FINANCES, DÉVELOPPEMENTS - 62e Congrès de l’Association Internationale des Economistes de Langue Française".

The security dynamics of the Maghreb and the Sahel are intertwined and the consequences of the Libyan conflict on the Sahel have been serious. Since its beginning in 2011, this conflict has triggered global concern about the economic, security, and geostrategic impacts on the Sahel. Current threats are posed by the illicit transfer, destabilizing accumulation, and misuse of arms, as well as the flow of armed groups and mercenaries. Despite considerable international efforts, especially by African countries, the Sahel is still experiencing one of the ...
