We present a new proof for the algebraicity of the cyclotomic Stark units. These units are defined in a transcendental way, via the derivative at s=0 of a partial zeta function. The proof links these units to the special values of the Riemann zeta function at positive even integers. The rationality of these special values (modulo a power of pi) implies the algebraicity of the cyclotomic Stark units.
