Guerriers et marchands: éléments pour une économic Politique des conflits en Afrique

Abstract

This article focuses on the study of the new forms of conflict in Africa and their determinants – the new intra-state conflicts which have replaced the Cold War induced conflicts. The new conflict situations in some countries have become a means for dominance of politics of closure, a closure of spaces and a hindrance to political transition processes and mechanisms.
