Après l'indépendance du Mali, il est déporté pour des motifs politiques. Le jeune Modibo grandit donc sans son père, où il alterne ses études à l'école et les travaux des champs. Il exerce plusieurs « petits métiers », comme vendeur de colliers dans la rue ou encore gérant de boîte de nuit. Après avoir obtenu son baccalauréat au Mali au lycée technique de Bamako, Modibo Diarra étudie les mathématiques, la physique et la mécanique analytique à Paris à l’université Pierre-et-Marie-Curie (grâce à une bourse), à l'École centrale, puis l’ingénierie aérospatiale aux États-Unis à l'université Howard (Washington D.C.). Débarqué en 1979, c'est par hasard qu'il intègre cette dernière université : plus jeune, Modibo s'était juré de ne jamais mettre les pieds dans l'Amérique de la ségrégation raciale.

  • The Force of Action: Legitimizing the Coup in Bamako, Mali Bruce Whitehouse
    ● ● ● ● Africa Spectrum 2-3/2012: 93-110 The Force of Action: Legitimizing the Coup in Bamako, Mali Bruce Whitehouse Abstract: The coup d’état that occurred in Bamako in March 2012 brought a previously unknown army captain named Amadou Sanogo to power. This paper analyses Malian media reports to explore how Sanogo and his associ- ates sought to legitimize their takeover with reference to local conceptions of heroism, power and destiny, and how Sanogo’s public image resonated with time-honoured narratives about heroic figures in Malian culture. This case demonstrates that understanding religious worldviews is essential for understanding the workings of political power. Manuscript received 2 October 2012; accepted 7 October 2012 Keywords: Mali, coup d’état/military insurrection, political culture Bruce Whitehouse is an assistant professor of Anthropology at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, where he also teaches courses in global studies and Africana studies. From August 2011 until May 2012 he was a Fulbright Scholar in Bamako, Mali, where he lectured at the Université des Lettres et des Sciences Humaines de Bamako. 94 Bruce Whitehouse When a coup d’état toppled Mali’s President Amadou Toumani Touré two months before the end of his second and final term of office, the man who led the putsch became the object of intense scrutiny by Malians and outside observers alike. This young army officer achieved overnight celebrity status in Bamako in the early morning of 22 March, when in his initial appearance on Mali’s ORTM state television, wearing camouflage fatigues and a cap pulled low over his forehead, he hoarsely read a terse appeal for calm.

  • Ibrahim Boubacar Keita
    Ibrahim Boubacar Keita Malí, Presidente de la República Duración del mandato: 04 de Septiembre de 2013 - En funciones Nacimiento: Koutiala, región de Sikasso, 29 de Enero de 1945 Partido político: RPM Profesión : Politólogo y consultor ResumenLas elecciones celebradas en Malí en julio y agosto de 2013, tras año y medio de gravísima crisis nacional, sentaron en la Presidencia de la República a Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, veterano dirigente político que ya había intentado ganar el mandato en las votaciones de 2002 y 2007. El respetado Keita, un experto en cuestiones del desarrollo y con buenas conexiones en el exterior, se distinguió en la oposición a la dictadura de Moussa Traoré (1968-1991) y luego fue uno de los pilares de la democracia malí, a la que sirvió como cofundador del partido ADEMA, primer ministro (1994-2000) con el presidente Alpha Oumar Konaré y jefe de la Asamblea Nacional (2002-2007) con Amadou Toumani Touré. Desde 2001 lidera una formación, el RPM, orientada al centro-izquierda.A los ojos de la comunidad internacional y de la gran mayoría de sus paisanos, Keita, llamado habitualmente IBK, con su reputación de hombre firme y a la vez pragmático, es la única figura capaz de asegurar la integridad de este empobrecido Estado del área sahelo-sahariana, que en enero de 2012 vio saltar por los aires dos décadas de estabilidad considerada modélica.La revuelta tuareg -la cuarta o quinta desde la independencia en 1960- en las vastas regiones desérticas del norte, el inicuo golpe del capitán Sanogo, que derrocó al presidente Touré, la proclamación por los rebeldes separatistas del Estado Independiente de Azawad y el auge espectacular de la subversión jihadista al socaire de todo lo anterior dibujaron un aciago escenario de guerra civil, usurpación castrense y partición territorial de facto que la intervención internacional por etapas, civil y militar, de los gobiernos de la región, de Francia y de la ONU pudo revertir en buena medida, aunque no del todo.

  • Responsive to Whom? a Comparison of the Mitterrand and Hollande Presidencies
    Responsive to whom? A comparison of the Mitterrand and Hollande presidencies Koen Damhuis (corresponding author) European University Institute [email protected] Johannes Karremans European University Institute [email protected] Acknowledgments: This article was presented during the workshop on electoral coalitions and their analytical implications at the European University Institute, 13–14 June 2016. We would like to thank the participants for their constructive feedback. We would also like to thank three anonymous reviewers for their helpful comments and suggestions. Of course, any errors remain our own. 1 Abstract This article investigates the responsiveness of the Parti socialiste towards specific social groups under the Hollande and Mitterrand presidencies. It thereby contributes to the discussion on the changing representativeness of social-democratic parties in Western Europe. The study is based on a content analysis of the governments’ justifications for the annual budget. With this innovative approach it is possible to assess whether the responsiveness of a party persists at the governmental level. Through an inductive coding procedure, three categories of responsive justifications are discerned: inequality reduction, needs of specific social groups and general functioning of society. In line with its title, the article mainly focuses on the second category, identifying a shift from responsiveness to the low-income classes towards responsiveness to the middle classes. Furthermore, a corresponding transformation of the Parti socialiste is observed, from advocating expansive policies in the early 1980s to justifying restrictive policies today. 2 1. Introduction In the spring of 2012, the French Parti socialiste won both the presidential and the legislative elections (with 51.64% and 49.93% of the votes respectively), and François Hollande became the first socialist president since 1995.

  • The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines
    The Executive Survey General Information and Guidelines Dear Country Expert, In this section, we distinguish between the head of state (HOS) and the head of government (HOG). • The Head of State (HOS) is an individual or collective body that serves as the chief public representative of the country; his or her function could be purely ceremonial. • The Head of Government (HOG) is the chief officer(s) of the executive branch of government; the HOG may also be HOS, in which case the executive survey only pertains to the HOS. • The executive survey applies to the person who effectively holds these positions in practice. • The HOS/HOG pair will always include the effective ruler of the country, even if for a period this is the commander of foreign occupying forces. • The HOS and/or HOG must rule over a significant part of the country’s territory. • The HOS and/or HOG must be a resident of the country — governments in exile are not listed. • By implication, if you are considering a semi-sovereign territory, such as a colony or an annexed territory, the HOS and/or HOG will be a person located in the territory in question, not in the capital of the colonizing/annexing country. • Only HOSs and/or HOGs who stay in power for 100 consecutive days or more will be included in the surveys. • A country may go without a HOG but there will be no period listed with only a HOG and no HOS. • If a HOG also becomes HOS (interim or full), s/he is moved to the HOS list and removed from the HOG list for the duration of their tenure.
