Kenya: thriving green crops with no economic impact

Journal Articles & Books
december, 2007
Kenya

Kenya is still largely agrarian with 80 percent of its population depending on agriculture for food, employment and income. The dilemma facing the country is that only 20 percent of the land is suited for agricultural production. A greater proportion of the country, however, consists of agroecologically less favoured areas (LFAs). Another dilemma in Kenya?s agricultural sector is that economic development impacts are not homogeneously spread even among the agriculturally favoured areas.

Afghanistan

Six years after the fall of the Taliban, Afghanistan is a long way from political stability and economic progress.

Global

Les États fragiles constituent un des plus grands défis de notre époque. C'est la raison pour laquelle ils sont de plus en plus au c'ur des préoccupations de la politique internationale et de la coopération au développement, mais il semble à cet égard que l'aspect humain ne soit pas toujours suffisamment pris en compte dans les réflexions.

États fragiles: que nous apprennent les exemples de pays?

Journal Articles & Books
mei, 2006
Afghanistan
Sierra Leone
Somalia

Afghanistan, Sierra Leone et Somalie : ces trois pays sont des États fragiles ayant des antécédents différents. L'auteur de cet article analyse ces exemples afin d'identifier les causes de leur situation, par exemple le rôle des identités ethniques, la revendication du pouvoir par des clans et d'autres groupes sousétatiques ou l'insuffisance de la représentation de la société au sein des gouvernements. Il estime que le plus grand danger pour un État est la violence qui peut rapidement déstabiliser un État faible et le précipiter dans le chaos.
