Abstract

S‘inspirant des expériences des pays industrialisés, de nombreux pays en développement ont adopté des politiques d‘intégration commerciale. Leur impact sur la croissance des échanges est généralement perçu comme positif dans la plupart des pays en développement. Le constat est en revanche plus nuancé dans le cas de l’Afrique : baisse de la part du continent dans les échanges mondiaux, faiblesse de la part de son commerce intrarégional dans son commerce total, contexte économique défavorable, infrastructures inadaptées, etc. Pour étudier cette question, cet article propose un état des lieux de l’intégration commerciale des pays de la zone franc couvrant quatorze pays d‘Afrique de l’Ouest et d‘Afrique centrale, en s‘intéressant plus particulièrement à son évolution récente.
