Le basculement de l’ordre international : énergie, technologie et recomposition des puissances au XXIᵉ siècle Résumé Depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l’ordre international repose sur un ensemble de règles, d’institutions et de normes visant à stabiliser les relations entre États. Toutefois, cet édifice connaît aujourd’hui une fragilisation profonde. La montée en puissance de l’Asie, la compétition pour les ressources énergétiques, l’émergence de nouvelles technologies comme l’intelligence artificielle, ainsi que la reterritorialisation des enjeux stratégiques, participent à une recomposition du système international. Cet article analyse les dynamiques contemporaines de ce basculement, en mettant l’accent sur l’énergie, l’eau, les routes commerciales et le rôle central du continent africain dans les équilibres futurs. 1. La crise de l’ordre international post-1945 L’ordre international issu de 1945 reposait sur trois piliers principaux : le droit international, le multilatér...

CBON’S RIDICULOUS AND FUTILE WAR AGAINST SOCIAL MEDIA! LA RIDICULE ET FUTILE GUERRE DE CBON CONTRE LES RÉSEAUX SOCIAUX !

Image
English version The CBON regime has just ordered the suspension « until further notice » of the main social networks (Facebook, TikTok, WhatsApp, Instagram, YouTube). The High Communication Authority (HAC) and the presidency justify this ban by the desire to bend the net giants, in particular the Meta group. The Gabonese authorities denounce the laxity of these platforms in the face of the spread of false information, cyberbullying and hate speech which, according to them, threaten to « destabilize the institutions of the Republic ». It would therefore be a tug-of-war to demand better moderation and establish a certain « digital sovereignty ». But this massive interruption of social networks does not occur in a calm climate. CBON is currently going through the first real zone of turbulence of his mandate, facing a wave of significant social protest, marked in particular by a long teachers’ strike. Many observers, journalists and citizens, share the opinion ...

LOSING SPEED, CBON DECIDES TO BREAK THE STOPWATCH! EN PERTE DE VITESSE, CBON DÉCIDE DE CASSER LE CHRONOMÈTRE !

Image
English version The High Communication Authority (HAC) of Gabon has just announced a radical measure: the immediate suspension of all social media throughout the national territory, until further notice. The analysis of the official speech delivered on February 17, 2026 reveals several interesting elements about the current posture of CBON power: The argument for state security: The HAC justifies this prohibition by implicitly stating that online freedom of expression now threatens to destabilize the institutions of the Republic and endanger national unity. The democratic paradox: The press release tries to reconcile the irreconcilable by stating that this censorship ironically aims to protect « democratic advances and achievements », even though the cutting of social media is historically one of the most coercive tools for controlling public space in dictatorships. Historically, the use of a digital blackout rarely occurs in times of serenity. This is often an urgent reaction...

ONE OF THE LAST MOHICANS HAS GONE! L’UN DES DERNIERS DE MOHICANS S’EN VA!

Image
  English version In 1993, about 600 prominent African-Americans gathered in Libreville, for the “Second African African-American Summit”. The first such summit was held in the Ivory Coast by Felix Ouphouet Boigny.  One of the towering figures of these summits has just passed away, the Reverend Jesse Jackson. Rev. Jesse Jackson was frequently referred to as one of the last "giants" or "lions" of the Civil Rights Movement because his life and career served as a direct bridge between the foundational struggles of the 1960s and modern American politics. As many of his contemporaries passed away, Jackson remained one of the few living leaders who was not only present but held a prominent role during the most defining moments of the era. Jackson was one of the last living members of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s inner circle. He joined the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) in 1965, participated in the Selma to Montgomery marches, and was appointed by King to...
