Stabiliser autrement ? Les équipes provinciales de reconstruction (PRT) en Afghanistan
Accroche

Jadis simple corollaire de l'action militaire, ce qu'il est convenu d'appeler la bataille des cœurs et des esprits constitue désormais l'un des enjeux principaux du conflit et en tout état de cause, l'enjeu majeur de la sortie de crise. Bien que préparée dès le temps de paix, la relation entre acteurs civils et militaires peine traditionnellement à se mettre en place sur les théâtres d'opérations, tant les modes opératoires des uns et des autres sont différents. Justement conçues pour dépasser ces divergences en Afghanistan, les équipes provinciales de reconstruction (PRT) représentent aujourd'hui l'outil de terrain le plus abouti en matière de coopération civilo-militaire.Malgré les ambiguïtés qui persistent entre aide humanitaire et objectifs militaires, en dépit également de résultats aléatoires et de certaines polémiques concernant la pertinence même du concept, les PRT s'étendent progressivement à tout l'Afghanistan qui fait désormais figure de laboratoire pour les stratégies de sortie de crise, au point de poser la question de la portée véritable de l'instrument pour les opérations de stabilisation à venir.

The Hunt for Economic Security: The Role of Navies in Deterring Threats to the Maritime Economy

Date de publication
10 June 2025
Accroche

The maritime domain is currently faced with a wide variety of threats, such as climate change, economic warfare, shadow fleet operations, protection of critical infrastructures, and illicit activities ranging from illegal fishing to piracy. Navies suffer from inherent limitations when deterring threats to the global maritime economy: their global presence and permanence limits their credibility in terms of deterrence, their focus usually set on immediate deterrence, implementing deterrence by punishment in and from the naval domain is difficult and costly.
