Patrimonialism and neopatrimonialism
When Guenther Roth suggested in the late 1960s that the notion of patrimonial rule should be applied to the regimes of ‘new’ states (1968: 194), this had already been experimented in Latin Amer ica and Asia. It was another mat ter in Africa, where the concept of ‘charismatic authority’ had been more commonly used to de scribe the rise to power of nationalist leaders and par ties (Ake 1966: 6-13; Zolberg 1966). More gen erally, the adoption of pat…
The Impact of the 2008–2009 Crisis on Commodity‐dependent Low‐income African Countries
Focusing on low‐income commodity‐dependent sub‐Saharan African countries, the paper argues that the impact of the 2008–2009 crisis, and more generally, these countries' growth trajectories, can be explained by the concept of the poverty trap. This is not trivial, because commodity‐based traps remain debated: some countries have grounded their growth on the export of commodities, and the impact of commodity price fluctuations may be analysed throu…
Reforms, Structure or Institutions? Assessing the determinants of growth in low-income countries
The criticisms of globalisation and international institutions often confuse the current state of multilateralism and its asymmetrical organisation; the economic theories it uses (the ‘Washington consensus’); and the reforms it promotes, such as liberalisation. Economic stagnation, however, has many causes other than the multilateral organisations’ reforms, which may have little impact on growth. These reforms may be efficient, irrelevant or powe…
Truth’, ‘efficiency’ and multilateral institutions
Contracts, Norms, and Political Economy
The article focuses on the microeconomic foundations and effects of the fragile tax base in Sub-Saharan Africa, which have been insufficiently taken into account by the international financial institutions. Two vicious circles are analysed. The first addresses the political economy of states: their inability to redistribute revenues reinforces a lack of credibility, leading to a reluctance by the majority of the population to pay taxes. Instead, …
Liberalisation, Multilateral Institutions and Public Policies

D’abord, l’impact des réformes économiques prescrites par la Banque mondiale sur la souveraineté des Etats africains est-il défavorable au développement? Deuxièmement, l’Afrique est-…
