Paper long abstract:

This article analyzes the determinants of the perceptions of Malian citizens vis-à-vis regional and international interventions. These interventions have intensified since the coups of 2012 and 2020 and have raised tensions between Mali and its regional and international partners. The article aims to elucidate the evolution of local perceptions on these interventions and thus to fuel reflections on the prospects for peace and stability in Africa. It is based on an analysis of data from surveys carried out as part of the Mali-Mètre, semi-structured interviews and an analysis of recent literature on the security and political crisis in Mali. This contribution sheds new light on the state of knowledge on local perceptions of international interventions in Africa based on the case of Mali.
