- Abstract
- La théorie des réseaux de distribution de services appliquée à l’analyse des filières cotonnières en Afrique met en évidence l’efficacité économique d’associer la promotion d’une culture de rente avec la fourniture diversifiée de services d’appui aux paysans. Les faits stylisés sur la dynamique des réseaux permettent de rappeler qu’il ne pourrait y avoir de développement

- The theory of networks, carried out within the framework of deregulating large service distribution firms, is applied to analyze the cotton sector in Africa. This paper examines the effectiveness of combining cash crop promotion with the supply of diversified services to producers. The stylized facts about the dynamics of service networks remind us that there cannot be any actual cotton development to reach critical size without state support. Vertical integration must be preserved in restructuring the cotton sectors. Local monopolies that result should nevertheless be regulated, notably to materialize a shared information system as a tool towards improved governance.
