L’exercice est d’autant plus légitime que la recomposition de l’ordre mondial questionne la place du continent à l’échelle planétaire, sur les plans économique, social et environnemental.

Il en résulte que la contribution de l'Afrique à la recherche économique mondiale demeure modeste malgré les enjeux économiques sign ...
