Abstract

Cette étude vise à retranscrire et à expliciter la diversité des trajectoires de croissance au sein du continent. La première partie s’intéresse à la nature et aux sources de la croissance en Afrique pour questionner l’existence d’un miracle africain et présente des faits stylisés illustrant la diversité des dynamiques de croissance. La seconde partie se concentre, quant à elle, sur les évolutions de la structure productive des économies africaines.
