Décentralisation et développement local au Sénégal. Chronique d'un couple hypothétique

Abstract

Is decentralisation in West Africa promoting local development ? An appraisal of the situation in Senegal underscores the stakes and difficulties of a decentralized control of public actions and development programs. Decentralisation reinforces the power of aid promoters and the « project-logic » by fragmenting the interventions fields. The resulting local governance, based upon multiple and « expert regulations », scarcely contributes to mobilise local actors in quest of territorial construction.
