Abstract EN:
Several socio-cultural dynamics prevail in bamako, capital town of mali : town-planning, migration, concentration of exchanges. . . That town of nearly 700 000 inhabitants is the melting pot of new forms of sociality among which the phenomenon of food is worth being studied. In this context of multiplicity which is the characteristic of a large town, we have asked ourself about food identity of the malian population of bamako. Who eats what? and how do they eat? what are the determinant factors of the food pattern? food is a social and cultural fact through which are expressed the assimilation and distinction which specify the belonging to a group. That is why, to the knowledge of food consumptions must be associated an approach of the private and the daily which ritualise the food. Therefore, it seemed suitable to associate both qualitative and quantitative methods in order to better describe food and better penetrate its social and cultural size.

La 4e de couverture indique: "A Bamako, capitale du Mali, interferent plusieurs dynamiques socio-culturelles : l'urbanisation, la migration, la concentration des echanges. . . Cette ville de quelque 700 000 habitants sert de creuset a de nouvelles formes de socialite, parmi lesquels le phenomene de l'alimentation merite d'etre considere. Dans ce contexte de multiplicite propre a la grande ville, nous nous sommes interrogee sur l'identite alimentaire de la population malienne de bamako : qui mange quoi, et comment? quels sont les facteurs determinants dans le style alimentaire? l'alimentation est un fait social et culturel par lequel s'expriment l'assimilation et la distinction qui definissent l'appartenance a un groupe. C'est pourquoi, a une connaissance des consommations alimentaires doit s'associer une approche du prive et du quotidien qui ritualisent la nourriture. Il convenait donc d'associer methode qualitative et methode quantitative afin de mieux decrire l'alimentation et de mieux penetrer sa dimension sociale et culturelle".
