Abstract

L'aire urbaine et la population de la ville de Douala s'accroissent d'année en année sans que les investissements des infrastructures suivent le même rythme. Les autorités peinent à trouver les ressources nécessaires pour répondre aux défis d'une urbanisation galopante. La population migrant vers la ville est confrontée à l'absence de réseaux urbains efficients et se heurte au problème du chômage dans un contexte de lutte pour l'obtention de titres fonciers. Les autorités nationales et locales ainsi que les bailleurs de fonds prônent une gestion concertée de ces problèmes, mais les Doualais ont depuis longtemps adopté des stratégies individuelles qui leur permettent d'y faire face.

Free market

In economics, a free market is an economic system in which the prices of goods and services are determined by supply and demand expressed by sellers and buyers. Such markets, as modeled, operate without the intervention of government or any other external authority. Proponents of the free market as a normative ideal contrast it with a regulated market, in which a government intervenes in supply and demand by means of various methods such as taxes or regulations.

Classical liberalism

Classical liberalism is a political tradition and a branch of liberalism that advocates free market and laissez-faire economics; and civil liberties under the rule of law, with special emphasis on individual autonomy, limited government, economic freedom, political freedom and freedom of speech. Classical liberalism, contrary to liberal branches like social liberalism, looks more negatively on social policies, taxation and the state involvement in the lives of individuals, and it advocates deregulation.
