Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] A little more than a year after the French military intervention, Mali continues to experience a critical situation from a political-institutional, security and socio-economic point of view. Although territorial integrity has been maintained and constitutional order partially restored, President Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta faces challenges of great complexity, ranging from the solution of the northern question, to the reform of the political-institutional system, to the restoration of security. The persistence of localized tensions and episodes of violence are reflected in a still precarious stabilization process in the northern areas, where armed banditry, jihadism, clashes between the various communities and forms of localized guerrilla keep the threat of a new implosion of the country high. . In the background, the presence of the international community, characterized by the central role of France, committed to promoting its policy of stabilization of the African continent, and the attempt by African institutions to develop a real capacity for managing continental crises.
