Towards New Developmentalism : Market as Means rather than Master
Neo-liberalism has dominated academic debates and policy choices concerning economic development since the early 1980s. Although this approach has been vigorously critiqued from different perspectives, these critiques have not coalesced into a recognizable alternative in the development economics literature.

Africa is suffering from the direct consequences of an exogenous crisis linked to excess deregulation and organization of wealth creation disconnected from production and the real economy. Through its prudent macro-economic management and the weakness of its financial infrastructure, Africa very scarcely operates on the virtual marketplace, much less dabble in speculation.

The Economics of Failed, Failing and Fragile States
The world is experiencing an important number of countries which are qualified as failed, failing or fragile States. One of the characteristics of poor countries lies in both the unhealthy governance provided by whatever is qualified as State and a lack of productive structure.
CRISE FINANCIERE : ALTERNATIVES FINANCIERES AFRICAINES
Absente comme continent à Bretton Woods I, l’Afrique est en train d’être marginalisée de Bretton Woods II qui se propose de refonder le libéralisme économique. Le dogme néo-libéral fondé sur la non-intervention de l’Etat comme régulateur s’est effondré et un capitalisme d’Etat sélectif, reposant toujours sur l’impunité d’acteurs éthiques, a pris le relais….
