Géopolitique des détroits : d’Ormuz à Malacca, retour de l’octroi, début de l’effroi ?

The attack on Iran and the tensions surrounding the Strait of Hormuz serve as a reminder of the strategic importance of major maritime routes to the global economy. As risks to energy, maritime trade, and supply chains intensify, other key straits such as Taiwan, Malacca, and Bab el-Mandeb are also becoming hotspots of geopolitical tension. This webinar analyzes the economic and strategic consequences of these developments and the transformation of trade routes into instruments of power and coercion. 🎙️ Speakers: Aurélien COLSON – Professor of Political Science at ESSEC Business School and Co-Academic Director of the Institute for Geopolitics & Business Clémentine GALLÈS – Chief Economist at Société Générale Private Banking Philippe LE CORRE – Professor of Geopolitics and Asian Studies at ESSEC Business School Joseph MAÏLA – Professor of Geopolitics, Middle East Specialist Félix PAPIER – Professor of Operations Management at ESSEC Business School 🎤 Moderator: Thomas FRIANG – Executive Director of the ESSEC Institute for Geopolitics & Business ------------ The ESSEC Institute for Geopolitics & Business explores how geopolitical disruptions are reshaping economic models and how corporate actors are increasingly involved in geopolitical dynamics.
