Abstract

[fre] Cet article illustre, tout d’abord, les problèmes posés par le financement des services essentiels en décrivant la situation à Delhi. À partir des exemples de l’Inde et du Maroc, ils soulignent l’importance des questions juridiques et politiques : il est nécessaire de reconnaître l’existence des quartiers et de l’habitat illégaux, de les régulariser. Puis, les auteurs font un rapide bilan des Partenariats publics-privés qui gardent un potentiel certain d’amélioration de l’efficacité de la fourniture des services, si l’on sait les adapter. Les auteurs donnent également des exemples de politiques spécifiques concernant les quartiers pauvres, en particulier celles qui recherchent un abaissement des coûts par des techniques innovantes, puis abordent les stratégies d’autonomisation des riches en se demandant si le mouvement ne peut être intelligemment accompagné. Enfin, ils abordent brièvement la fiscalité locale. . Classification JEL : H4, I38, R58 [eng] How to finance essential services in poor cities ? . This article illustrates problems raised by the financing of essential services by describing the situation in Delhi. With examples of India and Morocco, it underlines the importance of juridical and political questions : it is necessary to acknowledge the existence of the illegal districts and housing and to regularize them. Then, the authors present a brief assessment of public-private partnerships which can improve the effectiveness of the provided services. But PPP have to be adapted to the situation. The authors also give examples of specific policies concerning poor districts, particularly those that search a decrease in expenses with innovative techniques. Then they analyse how richer can reach their autonomy and how this movement can be accompanied. Finally, they describe local taxation. . JEL classification : H4, I38, R58
