De Boko Haram à la guerre en Centrafrique, les insécurités constituent un facteur majeur de recomposition des sociétés dans le bassin du lac Tchad (Cameroun, Centrafrique, Niger, Nigeria, Tchad). Peu connus, difficiles d’accès, les espaces de conflits et de violences de cette région se prêtent difficilement aux analyses des chercheurs et des acteurs du développement. D’où l’intérêt des enquêtes de terrain longues et approfondies présentées dans cet ouvrage, qui permettent de proposer une lecture des conflits fondée sur l’étude des dynamiques locales et du vécu des populations, par le prisme de diverses disciplines des sciences humaines et sociales. Il montre la diversité des insécurités – de la violence ordinaire à la guerre –, leur profondeur historique, ainsi que les enjeux économiques et politiques qui les sous-tendent. L’ouvrage présente également la question de la lutte contre les insécurités, qu’elle relève du militaire, du politique ou du développement. Chercheurs, décideurs, acteurs du développement et tous lecteurs concernés par les insécurités en Afrique de l’Ouest et centrale y trouveront informations et analyses originales sur les risques, les violences et les conflits du circum tchadien.

Designed to reach the widest possible audience, this volume showcases some of the research projects which best illustrate the commitment of the French National Research Institute for Sustainable Development (IRD) to biodiversity and sustainable development. Among today’s many pressing environmental challenges, protecting biodiversity is probably one of the most complex, since it cannot be understood independently of its interactions with the human societies who live with it, use it, manage it, destroy and, occasionally, protect it. As the examples contained herein demonstrate, biodiversity can no longer be confined by narrow academic boundaries. On the contrary, it is a subject inextricably linked with all of the major dynamics, human and non-human, which shape the global and local changes we currently face. In this respect, the present volume is testament to the commitment demonstrated by IRD and its partners to a vision of scientific endeavour which yields tangible, utilisable knowledge for the Global South, sustainability science in the strongest sense of the term, allowing our planet and its biodiversity to thrive in the long term.

Le manque d'eau est aujourd'hui source de conflits. Le lac Tchad a connu une régression rapide ces quarante dernières années, ce qui se solde par des conflits entre cultivateurs, pêcheurs et éleveurs. La recrudescence de ces conflits s'explique par le manque de coopération entre les différents acteurs impliqués dans la gestion des ressources en eau du lac Tchad. L'auteur propose des pistes, comme contribution pour une gestion pacifique et durable des conflits sociaux.

Most of the academic literature on violence in Nigeria is qualitative. It rarely relies on quantitative data because police crime statistics are not reliable, or not available, or not even published. Moreover, the training of Nigerian social scientists often focuses on qualitative, cultural, and political issues. There is thus a need to bridge the qualitative and quantitative approaches of conflict studies. This book represents an innovation and fills a gap in this regard. It is the first to introduce a discussion on such issues in a coherent manner, relying on a database that fills the lacunae in data from the security forces. The authors underline the necessity of a trend analysis to decipher the patterns and the complexity of violence in very different fields: from oil production to cattle breeding, radical Islam to motor accidents, land conflicts to witchcraft, and so on. In addition, they argue for empirical investigation and a complementary approach using both qualitative and quantitative data. The book is therefore organized into two parts, with a focus first on statistical studies, then on fieldwork.

The Earth's human population is expected to pass eight billion by the year 2025, while rapid growth in the global economy will spur ever increasing demands for natural resources. The world will consequently face growing scarcities of such vital renewable resources as cropland, fresh water, and forests. Thomas Homer-Dixon argues in this sobering book that these environmental scarcities will have profound social consequences--contributing to insurrections, ethnic clashes, urban unrest, and other forms of civil violence, especially in the developing world. Homer-Dixon synthesizes work from a wide range of international research projects to develop a detailed model of the sources of environmental scarcity. He refers to water shortages in China, population growth in sub-Saharan Africa, and land distribution in Mexico, for example, to show that scarcities stem from the degradation and depletion of renewable resources, the increased demand for these resources, and/or their unequal distribution. He shows that these scarcities can lead to deepened poverty, large-scale migrations, sharpened social cleavages, and weakened institutions. And he describes the kinds of violence that can result from these social effects, arguing that conflicts in Chiapas, Mexico and ongoing turmoil in many African and Asian countries, for instance, are already partly a consequence of scarcity. Homer-Dixon is careful to point out that the effects of environmental scarcity are indirect and act in combination with other social, political, and economic stresses. He also acknowledges that human ingenuity can reduce the likelihood of conflict, particularly in countries with efficient markets, capable states, and an educated populace. But he argues that the violent consequences of scarcity should not be underestimated--especially when about half the world's population depends directly on local renewables for their day-to-day well-being. In the next decades, he writes, growing scarcities will affect billions of people with unprecedented severity and at an unparalleled scale and pace. Clearly written and forcefully argued, this book will become the standard work on the complex relationship between environmental scarcities and human violence.

Shortlisted for the Fage and Oliver Prize 2018 In 2013, the Central African Republic was engulfed by violence. In the face of the rapid spread of the conflict, journalists, politicians, and academics alike have struggled to account for its origins. In this first comprehensive account of the country’s recent upheaval, Louisa Lombard shows the limits of the superficial explanations offered thus far – that the violence has been due to a religious divide, or politicians’ manipulations, or profiteering. Instead, she shows that conflict has long been useful to Central African politics, a tendency that has been exacerbated by the international community’s method of engagement with so-called fragile states. Furthermore, changing this state of affairs will require rethinking the relationships of all those present – rebel groups and politicians, as well as international interveners and diplomats. An urgent insight into this little-understood country and the problems with peacebuilding more broadly.

In August 1927, British colonial authorities arrested Hamman Yaji, Emir of Madagali, an infamous slave trader who had terrorized the neighboring montagnard populations of the Northern Cameroons and bedeviled the colonial administrations of three nations. His diary was seized and soon became a fabled document in northern Nigerian history. Written in Arabic and translated into English by a British colonial official, the diary chronicles Hamman Yaji's daily activities between 1912 and 1927. He recorded his daily routine - where he traveled, his slaving raids and slave-trading activities, visitors and gifts received, his relations with friends and family and with the British administration, and his practice of Islam. This rare and remarkable document, made accessible to scholars for the first time since its composition more than seventy-five years ago, is enhanced by a substantial introduction that places Hamman Yaji in historical and cultural perspective and describes the diary's discovery and translation, and its significance for British colonial and West African history.

Qu'est ce que le bassin du lac Tchad ? Plutôt que d'en faire un territoire particulier autour d'un lac dont les eaux baissent année après année ou un ensemble d'Etats (du Soudan au Niger, de la Libye à la Centrafrique) aux frontières contestables, mieux vaut le concevoir comme un sédiment historique de réseaux reliant du Nord au Sud et de l'Est à l'Ouest des populations, des espaces économiques, des pratiques sociales, des modes de production et de régulation... Et aussi des Etats. Le bassin devient alors cette synthèse problématique par laquelle le commerce transsaharien, les migrations, l'économie pétrolière, le banditisme, pour ne pas évoquer les flux culturels, fusionnent dans des espaces de vie structurés dans le temps long. Pourtant, cette zone n'est pas seulement celle de la longue durée : comme les textes rassemblés ici le démontrent, la réinsertion de la Libye dans le champs international, la pacification fragile mais durable du Tchad et la constitution d'une économie transnationale pétrolière incitent à repenser cette région dans son actualité pour le continent.

"This book ... emphasizes the role of economic factors in the conditions that lead to state collapse, give rise to and sustain conflict, and complicate peacebuilding." The book argues that "existing state-level focus tends to ignore the role of regional linkages in permitting and sustaining conflict and as obstacles to transformation." Furthermore that, "the focus on the dynamics of conflict in states of the developing world tends to artificially distance the outside, predominantly "Western" world from their genesis and evolution ..."
