The Visegrad Group (Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia) has, in 20 years, left its mark on the geopolitical map of Central Europe. Can this group become a serious sub-regional player in the European Union? Though locally it proves undeniably effective, it seems to only have a reactive efficiency in Brussels. Its ability to intervene in the European Neighbourhood Policy or the Union's energy policy will be a test of its weight in the future. Adapted from the source document.

Beyond the narrative which praises "the Moroccan exception", an extensive contentious movement has developed throughout the country. Far from being the product of a domino effect, the February 20 Movement stems notably from a process of building assumptions of similarity, from the reactivation of more or less abeyant structures. A wide coalition has developed within a field of both alliance and Opposition, at the intersection of formal political sphere and contentious politics, regardless of cleavages between leftist networks and Islamists. On a variety of scales involving the local, national, regional and international levels, an array of actions, interactions and events have contributed as much to the coalition taking roots as to the process of its erosion.
