Barcelone, relancé par l´Union pour la Méditerranée Bénédict de Saint-Laurent IEMed Language: Français
Emprunté à la grammaire arabe, l’adjectif inaccompli convient bien au processus de Barcelone, en particulier sur le plan économique. Des progrès ont été réalisés, mais sans véritable rupture. Alors que le reste du monde évolue très vite, la Méditerranée semble tarder à sortir d’une certaine léthargie. Un contexte géopolitique régulièrement perturbé (conflits,terrorisme) ajoute au pessimisme.
Pourtant, il est faux de dire que rien ne bouge et que Barcelone serait un échec. La réalité est plutôt que le processus (trop peu connu des acteurs économiqueset des populations) se trouve inachevé, comme au milieu du gué. Il faut à présent soit
accepter de se laisser entraîner au fil de l’eau – ce qui conduirait à une situation vite inacceptable –,soit cravacher pour gagner un terrain solide, au bénéfice de tous les riverains de la mer commune…

L’intégration régionale Sud-Sud. Une perspective comparative Monde Arabe – Amérique du Sud Azzam Mahjoub (professeur en sciences économiques à l’Université El Manar-I de Tunis) IEMed Language: Français
Aujourd’hui, la régionalisation est une tendance lourde accompagnant la mondialisation. Elle constitue la dimension régionale des relations économiques internationales et indique une intensification/polarisation des échanges au sein de grands groupes régionaux. Cette dimension nouvelle de la régionalisation, accélérée au tournant des années 80-90 du siècle dernier, concerne toutes les régions du monde et, en particulier, deux ensembles auxquels nous nous intéresserons ici, l’Amérique du Sud et le monde arabe.

AL-QAIDA AU SUD DE LA MÉDITERRANÉE Jean-Pierre Filiu IEMed Language: Français
Al-Qaida s’est forgée en migrant vers l’Orient de l’Islam et en tournant le dos à la Méditerranée. C’est en effet vers 1989 qu’un réseau de combattants arabes, formés au Pakistan pour le jihad antisoviétique en Afghanistan, s’est constitué sous forme de base (qâ’ida) de données. Et c’est en 1996 qu’Oussama Ben Laden, richissime apatride expulsé du Soudan, a lancé publiquement, depuis l’Afghanistan, le jihad global contre l’Amérique, coupable à ses yeux d’occuper «la terre des deux Saintes mosquées», l’Arabie saoudite. Cette matri-ce pakistano-afghane d’une organisation dirigée par un Saoudien déchu a durablement détourné Al-Qaida de la rive sud de la Méditerranée, vue au mieux comme un espace de transit vers d’autres terres de jihad.
Mais l’année 2007, avec l’émergence d’Al-Qaida au Maghreb Islamique (AQMI), en Algérie, et de Fath al-Islam, au Liban, semble marquée par un investissement majeur du jihad global dans cette zone longtemps négligée. C’est ce processus complexe dont cet article entend présenter les grandes lignes.

Depuis plusieurs années, l’idée d’un partenariat ou d’un statut avancé pour le Maroc dans ses relations avec l’UE est à l’ordre du jour.
