Objectives

Understanding politics as a system

A state’s stability depends on the strength of its institutions, the quality of its political competition and the trust its citizens place in it. The Political Quarter provides the keys to analysing these balances in the Ivorian and West African context.

  • Analyse how institutions and political actors operate
  • Decode electoral dynamics and public opinion
  • Evaluate a public policy and its effects
  • Produce a reasoned analysis of the political situation
