The mirage of democratic transition in Chad 19/03/2025
Summary :
This article analyzes the ongoing democratic transition in Chad following the death of President Idriss Déby in 2021. While his son, Mahamat Déby, took power by circumventing the Constitution, the international community largely supported this succession, notably France, the European Union, and the United States. Despite peace agreements and a national dialogue, the transition has been marked by electoral reports and violence, such as the repression of the October 2022 protests. The author criticizes the complacency of international partners in the face of this political dynasty and emphasizes the urgent need for increasing diplomatic pressure. The opposition and certain rebel groups remain excluded from the process, making true democratization unlikely.

The Women, Peace and Security Agenda in Chad: the case of the Lac and Ouaddaï provinces 12/03/2025
Summary :
The study "The Women, Peace, and Security Agenda in Chad: The Case of the Lac and Ouaddaï Provinces" analyzes the implementation of UN Resolution 1325 in Chad. Adopted in January 2023, the National Action Plan (NAP) is struggling to be implemented, particularly in the Lac and Ouaddaï provinces. The study highlights the role of women in local mediation, often limited to domestic conflicts, while their participation in national peace negotiations remains marginal. Gender-based violence remains a major issue, hampered by social norms and a lack of institutional coordination. Women's organizations play a key role, but their actions remain fragmented. The study recommends strengthening local initiatives, improving coordination between stakeholders, and raising awareness to truly integrate women into the peace process.

Everywhere, the Moral Failure of Political Leaders Endangers Democracy and Peace 17/06/2025
Summary :
The “Ça fait débat avec Wathi” episode highlights that the moral failure of many political leaders worldwide threatens democracy and social peace. Guests emphasize that abuses of power, corruption, populism, and disregard for public ethics fuel violence and fear of the future. This crisis of trust affects both major Western democracies and African nations, where authoritarian drift undermines social cohesion. The speakers call for an ethical renewal, the restoration of integrity, and accountability from leaders to prevent conflict escalation and safeguard democratic balance.

Hybridity and security policies in Africa 05/03/2025
Summary :
This article examines the shortcomings of security sector reform (SSR) programs in Africa, which focus primarily on state institutions without sufficient consideration of local realities. The authors introduce the concept of hybridity to better understand the interaction between state and non-state actors that influence security governance on the continent. These often-overlooked informal actors play a crucial role in regulating security and justice. The article critiques the dominant Western-inspired state model and advocates for broader recognition of customary norms and alternative security networks. By adopting hybridity as an analytical tool, policymakers could rethink security policies to better integrate these complex dynamics, which are often underestimated in reform efforts. The article argues that recognizing and adapting to these hybrid governance structures would improve the effectiveness of security interventions in Africa.
