Abstract

The aim of the study is to help to understand the notable paradoxes between the existence of a legal framework designed to facilitate the development of PPPs and the lack of an organisational basis for PPPs in Senegal's local authorities. For the purposes of this study, we have adopted a qualitative approach. Twenty-three (23) interviews were held with PPP and decentralisation stakeholders in Senegal: two (02) executives from the Ministry in charge of partnerships, two (02) executives from the Ministry in charge of sports, one (1) from the Ministry in charge of decentralisation, three (03) PPP experts, three (03) decentralisation experts, six (06) municipal councilors and six (06) municipal secretaries. After analysis, it is possible to note, in one hand, the contradictions in territorialisation of PPPs, and on the other hand, the limits they pose if we want to aim for organisational performance. Beyond the paradoxes, the analysis shows pitfalls at four levels. These pitfalls relate to values in local authorities that are not oriented towards those of the Public Management, an organisational structure that is not adapted to PPPs, formal frameworks for action that are far removed from the targets, and management tools that need to be defined.
