Abstract:
Depuis 1986, face aux mutations du contexte interne et international, la Francophonie poursuit et accentue la prise en compte d’objectifs politiques et noue l’ambition de devenir un acteur influent des relations internationales. Pour ce faire, elle n’a cessé de s’élargir et de se doter progressivement des moyens institutionnels et normatifs nécessaires. Aujourd’hui, son rôle politique commence à être reconnu. Elle est devenue un laboratoire d’un système international multipolaire en formation et d’une autre mondialisation humaniste. Elle est, aussi, un nouvel acteur et interlocuteur politique

Abstract:
The Somalia-based militant group, Al Shabaab, has conducted mass casualty transnational terrorist attacks and has become a regional security threat. In an effort to uncover the best explanation of the drivers behind the group's use of transnational terror, a critical analysis of Rational Choice Theory, Spill-over Conflict Theory and Regional War Complex Theory was conducted. Evaluating each theory according to whether its assumptions held true, the theory offered a parsimonious explanation of Al Shabaab's use of transnational terror which could be supported by at least three types of evidence,

Abstract:
This thesis seeks to analyse and explain the role of the African Union (AU) in managing intra-state conflicts in Africa. It first identifies the key reasons for the establishment of the African Peace and Security Architecture, namely the failure of the UN and the international community to intervene in remote conflicts in Africa throughout the 1990s and the reluctance of the Organisation for African Unity (OAU) to interfere in the internal affairs of sovereign nations. Then, it points to the gap between the optimism of the AU’s founders and its implementation record: in fact, the AU’s capabili

Likewise, international trade in energy has traditionally been synonymous with petroleum trade, which in turn has been effectively regulated by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), outside the reach of the multilateral trading system.
