Saïd Ali Coubèche
Saïd Ali Coubèche né à Djibouti en 1917 appartient à la génération des nationalistes de l'après-guerre. Issu de l'immigration yéménite, il incarne l'émergence d'une élite urbaine entreprenante qui anime la cité-Etat. L'homme a montré, envers et contre tout, qu'il est djiboutien et qu'il avait à cœur de participer au développement de la société à laquelle il appartient. Contribuer à transformer son pays n'est pas chose facile, car on peut hésiter et varier sur les moyens à utiliser. D'ailleurs, les choix de Saïd ont évolué dans un contexte lui-même mouvant : ils sont d'abord politiques (1945-1958), puis, en tirant les leçons de ses expériences, essentiellement éc...

Saïd Ali Coubèche, la passion d'entreprendre. Témoin du XXe siècle à Djibouti
Saïd Ali Coubèche né à Djibouti en 1917 appartient à la génération des nationalistes de l'après-guerre. Issu de l'immigration yéménite, il incarne l'émergence d'une élite urbaine entreprenante qui anime la cité-Etat.

Subjects of Empires/Citizens of States
Although the Horn of Africa was historically one of the earliest destinations for Yemeni migrants, it has been overlooked by scholars, who have otherwise meticulously documented the Yemeni presence in the Indian Ocean region. Subjects of Empires/Citizens of States draws on rich ethnographic and historical research to examine the interaction of the Yemeni diaspora with states and empires in Djibouti and Ethiopia from the early twentieth century, when European powers began to colonize the region. In doing so, it aims to counter a dominant perspective in Indian Ocean studies that regards migrants across the region as by-products of personal networks and local oceanic systems, which according to...

Historical Dictionary of Djibouti
Established as a country a little more than a century ago, born as an independent republic in June 1977, Djibouti is among the youngest as well as the smallest states in Africa. Yet its strategic location at the crossroads of the maritime trade routes between Africa, Asia and Europe turned this tiny spot on the world map into a vital player in twentieth century geopolitics. This historical dictionary has been conceived not as a history book but as a reading grid for the major historical items that are still molding the country's social, political and economic life.
