L’histoire présentée dans cet ouvrage est celle de la migration telle que perçue et remémorée par les femmes et les hommes qui se sont déplacés, depuis 1900, à l’intérieur comme à l’extérieur du Burkina Faso, de même que par celles et ceux qui y sont retournés. Il s’agit en effet de l’un des systèmes migratoires les plus importants en Afrique de l’Ouest, le corridor Burkina Faso–Côte d’Ivoire figurant parmi les 10 corridors Sud-Sud les plus empruntés dans le monde. Cet ouvrage montre comment les contextes politiques et économiques propres à l’histoire du Burkina Faso ont créé, puis reproduit, un système migratoire de va-­et-vient entre l’économie familiale, surtout dans l’agriculture de subsistance, et l’économie capitaliste, surtout au Ghana et en Côte d’Ivoire et dans quelques villes burkinabè. Basé sur 2 enquêtes nationales effectuées par sondage auprès de plus de 20 000 migrants, il dresse le portrait des migrations non seulement de la population mossi, le groupe ethnique le plus important du Burkina Faso, mais également d’autres sociétés burkinabè, celles des hommes comme celles des femmes, à l’international comme à l’intérieur du pays. La mobilité burkinabè y est vue comme un système circulaire entre les champs et villages et les régions de production capitaliste ou, comme se plaisent à dire les auteurs, entre le mil et le franc.

The hub-periphery development pattern of the Guangdong economy, to some extent, is a miniature of that of the Chinese economy. The Pearl River Delta, drawing from its first-nature comparative advantages in factor endowments and proximity to Hong Kong SAR, China, and Macau SAR, China, and the second-nature advantages as first-movers in the reforms in attracting and retaining domestic and foreign resources, has developed into a regional economic center. This paper examines the pattern of inter- and intra-provincial migration and that of the concentration of production, to explore the challenges and opportunities for the success of "double transfer." The paper suggests a four-prong approach, to improve the business environment, support the realization of latent comparative advantages, increase the skill level of the labor force to support the upgrade of the production structure, and protect the vulnerable, to support the inclusive growth of the economy in Guangdong in a sustainable manner.

Many African migrants residing abroad nurture a hope to one day return, at least temporarily, to their home country. In the wake of economic crises in the developed world, alongside rapid economic growth in parts of Africa, the impetus to ‘return’ is likely to increase. Such returnees are often portrayed as agents of development, bringing with them capital, knowledge and skills as well as connections and experience gained abroad. Yet, the reality is altogether more complex.In this much-needed volume, based on extensive original fieldwork, the authors reveal that there is all too often a gaping divide between abstract policy assumptions and migrants’ actual practices. In contrast to the prevailing optimism of policies on migration and development, Africa’s Return Migrants demonstrates that the capital obtained abroad is not always advantageous and that it can even hamper successful entrepreneurship and other forms of economic, political and social engagement.
