2011年发生在利比亚的战争迫使150万人离开这个国家。其中许多人来自撒哈拉以南非洲，在国际移民组织(移民组织)的帮助下返回原籍国。本文以国际移民组织在冲突前后的活动为例，质疑国际移民组织干预的纯粹人道主义性质。它表明，该组织长期以来一直参与执行欧洲移民政策在利比亚，更广泛地在撒哈拉，而不是对任何人负责。通过用国际危机管理取代地方政治，撒哈拉逐渐融入了国际官僚机构的权宜之计。战争和人道主义干预似乎是在非洲逐步实施全球监测、空间控制和流动管理系统的意外情况。
The war that took place in Libya in 2011 forced 1.5 million people to leave the country. Many of them, from sub-Saharan Africa, were helped to return to their countries of origin by the International Organization for Migration (IOM). This paper questions the purely humanitarian nature of the IOM intervention with references to its activities before and after the conflict. It shows that this organization has long participated in the implementation of European migration policies in Libya, and more widely in the Sahara, without being accountable to any people. Through the replacement of local politics by international crisis management, the Sahara is gradually integrated into a zone of international bureaucratic expedience. War and humanitarian intervention appear as contingencies in the progressive implementation of a global system of surveillance, spatial control and management of mobility in Africa.
