Dynamiques des investissements dans les pays riverains de la Méditerranée - I...AFRIKASOURCES
Auteur: Martin FLEURY, Jean-Philippe PAYET (Cabinet R.M.D.A pour IPEMED)
Un nouveau paradigme se met en place en s’appuyant sur les principaux ressorts du Sud que sont la main d’œuvre qualifiée et hautement qualifiée, la présence de partenaires industriels bien installés dans leurs marchés, une base infrastructurelle solide qui continue à se moderniser, l’accès à des marchés émergents, en Méditerranée et au-delà, une jeunesse enthousiaste et des régimes politiques en transition qui sont tenus d’ériger l’économie en priorité. Dès lors, il ne s’agit plus de conserver au Nord les activités nécessitant une main d’œuvre qualifiée et de délocaliser au Sud les activités nécessitant une main d’œuvre abondante et bon marché, mais d’associer la main d’œuvre qualifiée du Sud, moins onéreuse que celle du Nord, aux activités à forte valeur ajoutée. Il ne s’agit pas non plus de remplacer les emplois qualifiés du Nord par des emplois qualifiés au Sud, mais d’intégrer des partenaires ou des segments localisés au Sud dans un projet commun de croissance sur le marché européen (500 millions de personnes) et sur le vaste marché africain émergent (2 milliards de personnes en 2050).

This document is a Q&A about recent revelations of US government surveillance programs. It explains that the NSA has been collecting phone record metadata on millions of Americans under the Patriot Act since 2006 and information on foreigners from major tech companies through the PRISM program since 2007. These programs were authorized by secret courts but not revealed until leaks in 2013. While the government claims the goal is counterterrorism, critics argue it amounts to unprecedented domestic spying and the public deserves more transparency about surveillance of citizens.
