Abstract

From 2014, the Koglweogo phenomenon crystallized the debates around its opportunity, its legality and its legitimacy. Also, there are the Volunteers for the Defense of the Fatherland (VDP). These debates are highlighted in a society in full mutation and change, but also in a context of socio-political crises, and in a kind of break of trust between the populations and the society institutions. Organizing themselves to defend their territories, in another words their interests, the orientation of their activities about security problems brings them into conflict with other actors, the defense and security forces which are traditionally in charge of these problems; and raise questions in a state of law and sovereignty. The soft focus that, for a long time remained in the dynamics of their formalization or their deletion brings up to date the question of social regulation and the capacity of the State to ensure the coordination of a diversity of action in a field as complex as that of security. To arrive at such conclusions, the approach is based on a qualitative method combining press cuttings, documentary research and semi-structured interviews, individual, collective and by voice of the press, from a theoretical entry by the conflicts.
