Abstract:
Burkina Faso currently has no diplomatic relationship whatsoever with the People's Republic of China. Engaged in cooperation with Taiwan since 1994, it is one of only three African countries not a part of the Forum on China–Africa Cooperation. This unusual situation has produced a unique manifestation of the Chinese presence in Burkina Faso, where the estimated 600 Chinese migrants are primarily private entrepreneurs. This phenomenon of “globalization from below” – or, this migration of entrepreneurs that transcends the absence of diplomatic relations – creates new intimate social relations between the Burkinabe and Chinese people who come into contact with each other. Far from simply turning Chinese and Burkinabe into economic competitors, these relations have also led to the emergence of many forms of interpersonal and business cooperation. In this paper, I therefore demonstrate how Sino-African cooperation from below has developed in Burkina Faso, which stands in radical contrast to the latter's cooperation with Taiwan, which takes place almost exclusively on a broader state-to-state level. The empirical evidence of this study is drawn from field survey interviews and observations of both Chinese and Burkinabe entrepreneurs in Burkina Faso between 2010 and 2011.

Abstract:
The main purpose of this paper is to examine the different types of factors in the African business context and in particular in the context of Burkina Faso, that can help companies to be successful. It is about the identification of the key successful factor among some main factors such as adaptation, efficiency and strategic positioning The data is from a survey on entrepreneurs in Burkina Faso, who attended the Africallia business meeting in 2018. The results show that the adaptation to the context is one of the main factors for business success. Thus, the suggestion is that companies should adapt to the African context in order to improve their profit, performance and thus gain a tremendous success. Keywords: Success Factors, Business, Companies, Adaptation, Efficiency, Strategic Positioning, Africa.

Abstract:
Goudebou refugee camp in northern Burkina Faso has emerged as a testing ground for international efforts to find market-based solutions to the delivery of basic energy services in humanitarian contexts. This article follows energy researchers, humanitarian practitioners and entrepreneurs as they work to capture a market for energy here by mapping consumer demand, generating evidence that can prove the willingness of refugees to pay and securing contracts for the supply of solar powered technologies. Their efforts reveal the moral and material logics of humanitarian interventions in the field of energy, and point to the continued significance of ‘crisis’ for the making of Africa’s energy politics, subjects and futures.

Abstract:
Deux types de processus entrepreneurial se distinguent dans la littérature : la causalité et l’effectuation. La causalité consiste à rechercher les ressources nécessaires pour atteindre un but prédéfini tandis que l’effectuation consiste à démarrer avec les moyens dont on dispose sans but prédéfini. Peu de littérature traite de l’entrepreneuriat des femmes au Burkina Faso, encore moins sous l’angle de l’effectuation. Ainsi, le but principal de cette thèse est de répondre à la problématique suivante : Comment l'effectuation affecte le processus entrepreneurial des femmes entrepreneures Burkinabè ? Pour répondre à cette question de recherche, nous avons eu recours à une étude quantitative menée auprès de 272 entrepreneurs (213 hommes et 59 femmes) afin d’identifier le profil des entrepreneurs au Burkina Faso et tout particulièrement celui des femmes. En deuxième lieu, nous avons réalisé des entretiens semi directifs avec 20 femmes entrepreneures afin d’identifier leurs motivations mais aussi le type de processus entrepreneurial qu’elles adoptent, ainsi que leur place dans l’environnement socio-culturel Burkinabé. Pour la collecte et le traitement de nos données nous avions utilisé successivement les logiciels SPHINX, SPSS et NVIVO 11. Nos résultats montrent que les femmes ne représentent que 21,7 % du paysage entrepreneurial Burkinabé. Cette faible représentativité est liée en grande partie au fait qu'elles subissent les normes sociales qui les renvoient vers le rôle de mère et de femme au foyer dépendante de l'homme. Nos résultats prouvent aussi que les femmes créent leurs entreprises pour des raisons « pull » car, très souvent c'est pour exploiter une compétence ou exercer un métier ou une activité qu'elles aiment. De plus, les femmes créent leurs entreprises sans un but prédéfini à l'avance. Elles se basent plutôt sur les ressources dont elles disposent notamment leur personnalité, leur savoir-faire et le soutien familial. Le processus entrepreneurial des femmes burkinabè s’inscrit donc dans une logique effectuale. C'est pourquoi de nouveaux outils qui prennent en compte cette dynamique effectuale et la place de la femme dans la société burkinabè doivent être mis en place pour mieux les accompagner
Two kinds of entrepreneurial process are proposed in the literature. The causal one is to search for the resources needed to achieve a predefined goal and the effectual one is to start with the means that are available without a pre-defined purpose. Few articles discuss the women entrepreneurship in Burkina Faso especially on the effectual level. So, the aim of our thesis is to answer the question: How the effectuation affects the entrepreneurial process of women entrepreneurs in Burkina Faso? To answer this question, we conducted a quantitative study with 272 entrepreneurs (213 men and 59 women) to identify the profile of the entrepreneurs in Burkina Faso and quite particularly that of the women. In the second place, we realized semi directive interviews with 20 women entrepreneurs in order to identify their motivations, but also the type of entrepreneurial process whom they adopt, as well as their place in the Burkinabe sociocultural environment. The data was processed with SPHINX software, SPSS and NVIVO 11. Our results show that the women represent only 21,7 % of the entrepreneurial landscape Burkinabe. This low representativeness is largely connected to the fact that they undergo the social standards which send back them towards the role of mother and housewife dependent on the men. Our results also show that women create their businesses for "pull" reasons, since they do it with the aim to exploit a skill or to exercise a trade or activity that they like. In addition, women create their businesses without a predefined goal in advance. Rather, they rely on the resources they have, in particular their character, know-how, and family support. The women entrepreneurial process in Burkina Faso is therefore a part of an effectual rationale. That is why new tools that take into account this dynamic and the place of women in the Burkinabe society, must be put in place to better accompany them

Abstract:
Depuis quelques annees, la creation d'entreprises est devenue dans presque tous les pays, une preoccupation majeure pour les pouvoirs publics qui la considerent comme la panacee aux problemes de chomage et de renouvellement du tissu industriel. Dans cette logique, c'est la creation de petites et moyennes entreprises qui retient particulierement l'attention. Au burkina faso, ce regain d'interet pour la creation d'entreprises s'est traduit par la prise de mesures de liberalisation (refonte de textes legislatifs, creation de guichets uniques, adoption d'un nouveau code des investissements) dont les objectifs seraient entre autres de creer un climat propice au developpement du secteur prive. L'objet de cette these dans ce contexte est de d'identifier les principaux facteurs qui determinent les processus de creations de pme par les individus au burkina faso. Comment et pourquoi les individus creent-ils des pme ? quelles sont les logiques qui sous-tendent les processus de creations ? tels sont les principaux questionnements de cette recherche. Sur le plan conceptuel, cette these s'appuie sur une analyse dite quadri-dimensionnelle qui met en relation les quatre dimensions essentielles dela creation d'entreprises : le createur, l'environnement de la creation d'entreprises, le processus et le type d'entreprise creee. Les principales conclusions de cette recherche se fondent sur une etude qualitative et quantitative menees aupres de 200 pme du burkina faso.

Abstract:
Le pays Nuna, les actuelles provinces du Ziro et de la Sissili, est un des fronts pionniers agricoles dynamiques au Burkina Faso. En effet, depuis particulièrement la décennie 1970 marquées par une dure crise de sécheresse qu’a connue le pays, un mouvement migratoire important mis en œuvre par les Mossis et les Peuls originaires des régions septentrionales du Burkina a été déclenché en direction des terroirs de cette région située au sud. Cette migration qui s’est maintenue jusqu’à aujourd’hui est un fait important qui marque les rapports socio-économiques locaux, engagés dans un processus de différenciation. La paysannerie qui était relativement homogène dans le cadre de l’agriculture domestique, est désormais engagée dans une logique de restructuration accélérée symbolisée par l’apparition de catégories d’agriculteurs différenciées et inégales au plan de la production agro-sylvo-pastorale. Les pratiques agricoles et foncières connaissent des mutations profondes : l’agriculture est de plus en plus intégrée au marché national et international et l’une des implications de cette évolution est la marchandisation du foncier, ce qui constitue, en même temps, une rupture avec l’ordre coutumier en matière de gestion foncière locale. La liaison avec le marché détermine non seulement les types de spéculations à produire mais positionne, dorénavant, différemment les agriculteurs dans la société rurale en pays Nuna. Cette dynamique de décomposition-recomposition de la paysannerie est accentuée par la mise en œuvre d’une politique d’agrobusiness ou d’entreprenariat agricole au profit des élites urbaines dotées, pour ce faire, de bien plus de moyens matériels et financiers que les agriculteurs locaux. Les rapports traditionnels locaux aux ressources productives, notamment le foncier, sont devenus des rapports de pouvoir de type capitaliste. Dans un tel environnement de compétitions exacerbées entre les différents acteurs, agriculteurs locaux différenciés et entrepreneurs agricoles d’origine urbaine, les trajectoires d’évolution future des catégories paysannes constituent une question complexe à analyser et mettent à rude épreuve les politiques publiques agricoles de l’Etat burkinabé
The Nuna county, the current provinces of Ziro and Sissili, is one of the dynamic agricultural pioneering fronts in Burkina Faso. In fact, since particularly the 70s marked by a harsh drought crisis experienced by the country, a major migratory movement engaged by Mossi and Fulani people from the northern regions of Burkina Faso, was triggered towards the lands of this southern region. This migration which has continued until today is an important fact impacting local soci-economical relationships, in a differenciation process. Peasantry that was relatively homogenous in terms of domestic agriculture is now engaged in a accelerated restructuring logic in terms of agro-sylvo-pastoral production. Agricultural and land management practices have been experiencing deep changes : agriculture is increasingly integrated in the national and international market, and one of the implications of this development is the commodification of land ; which is at the same time, a break with the customoray order in terms of local land management. The link with the market determines not only the types of agricultural speculations to produce, but it henceforth, positions farmers differently in the rural society of the Nuna county. This restrcuring-decomposition dynamic of peasantry is emphasized by the implementation of an agro-buniss or agricultural entrepreneurship policy by urban elites, equipped ; to that effect, with more material and financial resources than the local farmers. Local traditional relationships to productive resources, including land, have become capitalist type power relationship. In such an exacerbated competitive environment between different stakeholders and agricultural entrepreneurs of urban origin, the future development trajectorries of farmer categories are a complex issue to analyze and they have been testing public agricultural policies of Burkina Faso

Abstract:
From mad cows to McDonaldization to genetically modified maize, European food scares and controversies at the turn of the millennium provoked anxieties about the perils hidden in an increasingly industrialized, internationalized food supply. These food fears have cast a shadow as long as Africa, where farmers struggle to meet European demand for the certifiably clean green bean. But the trade in fresh foods between Africa and Europe is hardly uniform. Britain and France still do business mostly with their former colonies, in ways that differ as dramatically as their national cuisines. The British buy their "baby veg" from industrial-scale farms, pre-packaged and pre-trimmed; the French, meanwhile, prefer their green beans naked, and produced by peasants. Managers and technologists coordinate the baby veg trade between Anglophone Africa and Britain, whereas an assortment of commercants and self-styled agro-entrepreneurs run the French bean trade. Globalization, then, has not erased cultural difference in the world of food and trade, but instead has stretched it to a transnational scale. French Beans and Food Scares explores the cultural economies of two "non-traditional" commodity trades between Africa and Europe--one anglophone, the other francophone--in order to show not only why they differ but also how both have felt the fall-out of the wealthy world's food scares. In a voyage that begins in the mid-19th century and ends in the early 21st, passing by way of Paris, London, Burkina Faso and Zambia, French Beans and Food Scares illuminates the daily work of exporters, importers and other invisible intermediaries in the global fresh food economy. These intermediaries' accounts provide a unique perspective on the practical and ethical challenges of globalized food trading in an anxious age. They also show how postcolonial ties shape not only different societies' geographies of food supply, but also their very ideas about what makes food good.
