Abstract

The start of the economic crisis in Cameroon, in 1986-1987, constrained the State to reshape its economic policy and to secure the help of the IMF in order to get the upper hand on this plague which damaged the established social structures. During the years 1988-1989, Cameroon entered a period of real economic revival through its submission to the plans of structural adjustment which aimed to re-establish the macro-economic mechanisms. This analysis aims to describe the political strategies conceived in order to accomplish the social and economic development of Eastern-Cameroun.
