Abstract

La permanence d'un chômage élevé dans les départements et régions françaises d'outre-mer et la surexposition de certains publics, en particulier les jeunes et les femmes, pose la question de l'efficacité des politiques publiques de lutte contre le chômage déployées en outre-mer. Cet article propose une revue des travaux théoriques et appliqués qui ont exploré les causes du chômage des départements et régions d'outre-mer, complétée par des exploitations statistiques d'indicateurs permettant de caractériser l'état du marché du travail. Alors qu'une première génération de travaux privilégiait l'argument d'un excès d'offre de travail et des explications socio-démographiques, les analyses plus récentes mettent l'accent sur des déterminants économiques de l'insuffisance de la demande de travail. La co-existence d'un chômage élevé et de difficultés de recrutement suggère par ailleurs la présence de problèmes d'appariement entre offre et demande, qui sont moins explorésmais qui contribuent sans doute eux aussi à l'explication du chômage domien. Il y a bien une pluralité de facteurs qui doivent être évoqués pour rendre compte de la persistance du chômage ultra-marin, ce qui a des implications importantes pour les politiques de l'emploi dans les DOM.
