Abstract

type="main" xml:lang="fr"> L'Acte Constitutif de l'Union Africaine considère l'intégration régionale comme une des clés de l'unité du continent et de son développement. Subséquemment, plusieurs initiatives ont été prises conformément aux dispositions du traité d'Abuja afin d'atteindre une intégration totale en 2034. Toutefois, de nombreuses Communautés Économiques Régionales et notamment la Communauté Économique des États d'Afrique Centrale, sont confrontées à des difficultés diverses dans leur processus d'intégration. La présente étude se donne pour objectif de démontrer la contribution quantitative de l'intégration régionale en termes de croissance, pour les pays d'Afrique Centrale. Pour ce faire, la modélisation économétrique utilise un modèle VAR spécifié sur données de panel. Il en ressort que la contribution globale d'un pays d'Afrique Centrale à l'intégration explique à long terme 16,96% de la variation de sa croissance économique. Spécifiquement, l'union économique et l'union économique totale sont les phases du processus qui contribuent le plus à la croissance, à hauteur respective de 3,34% et 7,79%. Les impacts de la libéralisation commerciale et de l'union douanière sur la croissance, bien qu'étant de moins forte amplitude, sont positifs et persistants sur 10 ans.
