L’unité du monde sportif africain face à l’olympisme
Après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l’Afrique est un enjeu pour le mouvement olympique alors que peu de pays ont des Comités nationaux olympiques (CNO) et participent aux Jeux olympiques (JO). De plus, hormis les Jeux méditerranéens (1951) et les Jeux panarabes (1953), une partie de l’Afrique n’est pas représentée au Comité international olympique (CIO) et n’a pas de structure représentative du sport sur le continent. Cependant, en 1960, les indépe…
