The general aim of this work is to study conflict-based political relations in Ouillimenden Kel Dinnik Tuareg society in the Azawagh region of Niger, from the pre-colonial period to the present day. The Ouillimenden Kel Dinnik Tuaregs originated in the M?naka region (present-day Mali) following a rift between them and their brothers in Menaka, who took the name Ouillimenden Kel Ataram. The emigrants are called Ouillimenden de l'Est or Kel Dinnik. Their history is marked by ongoing conflicts, notably between the various Touareg confederations that surround them, but also by tensions between the social fractions that make them up. This permanence of conflict depends on their traditional upbringing. This is how they fought great battles against the Kel A?r, the Kel Gress, the Kel Ahaggar and the Kel Ataram. This warlike attitude of the Ouillimenden Kel Dinnik continued during the colonial period with the revolt of 1917, the various regimes that succeeded one another in Niger after independence, and during the new context of democratization with the armed rebellion from 1991 to 1995.
