Abstract

[eng] Dominique Gentil and Jean-Michel Servet — Between « localism » and globalisation : Micro-finance as evidence and as a leverage of socioeconomic changes. Micro-finance must not only be analysed as a local phenomenon. It also fits in the framework of globalisation, is presented as a planetary movement, integrates within neo-liberal myths and is mobilised in anti-poverty campaigns. It may also be considered as revealing of economic opportunities, of social differentiations of economic, social and cultural imbrications, of the new links between town and country. Finally it is an important leverage of change, contributing to local development ; diffusing hybrid norms and advocating public policies defined by different actors concerned and not exclusively by the State.
