ABSTRACT: Governance has very often been pointed at the developments approaches as the main cause of development delays and political instability in African countries such as Mali. The question of security, which is added to the chapel of the grievances expressed by the populations towards their governments, continues to arouse the interest of many research works that have such relevance. What role can good governance play in the concern for the construction of security and peace, measures of stability and development in the Allies in a context of geopolitical uncertainty? The lack of governance as a factor in the fragility of the State aggravated by the geopolitical issues also increases the level of insecurity in the country with its evident repercussions in the Sahel. The study examines the mechanisms by which state fragility feeds regional insecurity, analyses attempt at institutional refoundation and formulates recommendations for post-crisis reconstruction. KEYWORDS: Fragile State, Geopolitics, Governance, Insecurity, Mali, Sahel.
