Book Description

This ten-year review of Cameroon's economic, social and political events covers a delicate period in the recent history of this Central African country, rich in natural and human resources. It begins with a difficult year: 2008 was marked by serious socio-political unrest linked to the wish of President Paul Biya, in power since 1982, to change the constitution, by removing the limitation on the number of presidential terms. Once the constitution was amended, the president was re-elected in 2011 for seven years. But in a predictable way and while the economy was stagnating, the political situation slowly deteriorated in the following years, leading in 2017 to the beginning of a civil war in one part of the country. This decade allows us to see a locked political system, inherited from colonization, but which seems more and more at the end of the race.

Cette revue de dix ans de l'actualit� �conomique, sociale et politique du Cameroun couvre une p�riode d�licate de l'histoire r�cente de ce pays d'Afrique centrale, riche en ressources naturelles et humaines. Elle commence par une ann�e difficile: 2008 a �t� marqu�e par des troubles sociopolitiques graves li�s � la volont� du pr�sident Paul Biya, au pouvoir depuis 1982, de changer la constitution, afin de supprimer la limitation du nombre de mandats pr�sidentiels. Une fois la constitution modifi�e, le pr�sident a pu �tre r��lu en 2011 pour sept ans. Mais de mani�re pr�visible et alors que l'�conomie stagnait, la situation politique s'est lentement d�grad�e au cours des ann�es suivantes, jusqu'� d�boucher en 2017 sur un d�but de guerre civile dans une partie du pays. A travers ces dix ans se dessine ainsi un syst�me politique verrouill�, h�rit� de la colonisation, mais qui semble de plus en plus en fin de course.
