La perception des enjeux sanitaires touchant l’Afrique subsaharienne se réduit souvent aux ­épidémies, à la malnutrition et aux maladies infectieuses. Or, les pathologies non transmissibles et chroniques sont aussi un enjeu majeur, en particulier chez les citadins. La capitale du Burkina Faso compte aujourd’hui 2 millions d’habitants avec un taux de croissance de plus 7 % par an. Cette forte croissance s’est accompagnée d’une extension géographique, avec des quartiers entiers constitués de manière informelle, certains bénéficiant du lotissement et de la mise en place d’infrastructures collectives. En Afrique, peu d’études se sont intéressées à la santé des populations vivant en marge des villes, pauvres et souvent issues du milieu rural. Depuis 2008, l’Observatoire de population de Ouagadougou mène une enquête à passages répétés dans cinq quartiers périphériques. À partir de ces données devenues une source incontournable sur la santé urbaine en Afrique de l’Ouest, cet ouvrage dresse un bilan des différents fardeaux de maladies qui pèsent aujourd’hui sur leurs habitants de façon inégale selon les caractéristiques socioéconomiques et environnementales. Les résultats présentés s’avèrent précieux pour étudier la transition sanitaire en Afrique et aider à l’élaboration de politiques de développement et d’amélioration des conditions de vie.

Through richly detailed anthropological case studies of the rural economics and administrative policies in Burkina Faso, and reassessment of current models of conflict, resource management and modern administration, this book explores the current political, economic and social transformation of Western Africa. Ethnic tensions, the case studies suggest, are a strategic part of social and economic local relations - a pattern that is repeated when ethnic stereotyping finds its way into the higher echelons of national administration and of international development cooperation. Conflicts are shown to be ethnicized by local and administrative elites, creating screens impenetrable to those involved in the states' formal administration, and behind which informal local economies thrive. In these 'concealed economies' individuals exploit the ethnic divide by hiding friendly and profitable inter-ethnic relations behind a rhetoric of ethnic tensions and staged conflict. Cultivating ties across ethnic divides is not limited, however, to rural relations but becomes common practice at almost all levels of national and civil administration. Andreas Dafinger is Associate Professor of Social Anthropology at the Central European University, Budapest. He has worked on Burkina Faso for almost twenty years.
