Abstract:

This article aims to analyze the emergence of the migration-development nexus after decolonization in Francophone sub-Saharan Africa. The first section explores the way in which French governmental bodies and NGOs started to frame public policies linking migration and development in the 1960s and 1970s. The second section highlights how developmentalist ideology was mobilized in the 1980s in order to set up return policies in partnership with African governments who were increasingly inclined to control migrants’ monetary remittances. The last section emphasizes how the migration-development nexus was orchestrated to control migratory flows from the late 1980s onwards.

Résumé:

Cet article analyse l’émergence de la connexion migration-développement aux lendemains de la décolonisation en Afrique subsaharienne francophone. La première section explore la manière dont les institutions gouvernementales françaises et les ONGs ont progressivement développé des politiques publiques dans les années 1960 et 1970 liant migration et développement. La deuxième section montre comment l’idéologie développementaliste a été mobilisée dans les années 1980 pour mettre en place des politiques de retour en partenariat avec les gouvernements africains de plus en plus enclins à contrôler les transferts monétaires réalisés par les migrants. La dernière section met l’accent sur la façon dont la connexion migration-développement a été utilisée à partir de la fin des années 1980 pour contrôler les flux migratoires.
