    Ghana achieved lower middle-income country status by 2011. However, its growth path in the previous decades did not lay the foundations for the economic transformation of Ghanaian agriculture and therefore its overall economy. It relied primarily on extractive and non-renewable resources (gold and oil) and cocoa exports, and it did not diversify. While much progress was made in poverty reduction, pervasive low productivity and job informality continue to condemn millions to poverty, ...

Les États africains se sont engagés dans des actions de réappropriation de leur patrimoine culturel: la restitution des oeuvres par les puissances occidentales exprime cette recherche de nouvelles formes de reconquête des symboles de l’identité africaine. Mais force est de constater que l’Afrique reste encore peu présente dans l’industrie mond ...

    Si les dimensions politique et économique de la politique africaine du Maroc ont déjà largement été abordées par la littérature, la dimension culturelle reste quant à elle assez peu traitée. La littérature relative à la politique étrangère du Maroc, sa dimension symbolique (culturelle ou cultuelle) est relativement rare. Pourtant, il existe bien une diplomatie du culturel conférant une valeur ajoutée à la sa diplomatie générale. Elle se réfère à certains éléments constitutifs de l’i ...
