Résumé
J.-Y. Marchal—Premises for a Modem State? Colonial Projects in the Volta Basin (1897-1960). To which uses can one put a dense population inherited from a strong, enduring political power? Should it be either compelled into production or else driven to export its life force ? The alternative which confrontee the colonial administration of Upper Volta has apparently fashioned the destiny of Burkina Faso.
