Résumé ou extrait
- "The role of French security policy and cooperation in Africa has long been recognized as a critically important factor in African politics and international relations. The newest form of security cooperation, a trend which merges security and development and which is actively promoted by other major Western powers, adds to our understanding of this broader trend in African relations with the industrialized North. Yet, this book argues that French involvement in Africa is not in the interest of Africans, since French intervention continues to deny African political freedom and to sustain their current social, economic and political conditions. Moreover, it illustrates how policies portrayed as promoting stability and development can in fact be factors of instability and reproductive mechanisms of systems of dependency, domination and subordination."
