Des paysans plus professionnels que les développeurs ? L'exemple du coton au Tchad (1930-2002)

Abstract

The history of cotton brings to light many misunderstandings between developers and the developed. Yesterday's developers and today's NGO's, which advice peasants on becoming professionals, have in common a total lack of interest in knowing local societies. The NGO's, just as aid and cooperation organisations, prefer agronomy, human and veterinary medicine, etc., at the expense of the social sciences. The understanding of peasant strategies should constitute the first basis of the process of professionalizing of developers.
