This research takes into account caricature as an effective tool aimed at a heterogeneous audience. Its primary aim is to affirm the importance of this satirical design as a semiological sign used to communicate. Second, it attempts to induce its receiver to clearly locate the range of questions to be asked from it. To achieve this goal, we will first carry out an analysis of the components of the (political) cartoons extracted from the Moroccan daily newspapers. Then, we will make a description of these from a semiological perspective by highlighting the techniques used to produce this visual message that is both fast and effective.
Author Keywords: Humor, political caricature, freedom of expression, semiology, humorous procedures.

Abstract: (french)
Cette recherche prend en considération la caricature comme étant un outil efficace qui s’adresse à un public hétérogène. Elle a pour visée en premier lieu d’affirmer l’importance de ce dessin satirique comme un signe sémiologique qui sert à communiquer. En second lieu, elle tente d’inciter son récepteur à situer clairement l’entendue des questions à se poser à partir de celui-ci. Pour atteindre ce but, nous allons réaliser d’abord une analyse des composants des caricatures (politiques) extraites des quotidiens marocains de la presse écrite. Ensuite, nous allons faire une description de celles-ci dans une perspective sémiologique en mettant en valeur les techniques utilisées pour produire ce message visuel à la fois rapide et efficace.
Author Keywords: Humour, caricature politique, liberté d’expression, sémiologie, procédés humoristiques.
