Abstract EN:
The thing is, between 1930 and 1957 to evaluate the quantity of public buildings realized in dakar by the colonial authorities. To this point of view the definition 0f public equipment goes widely beyond the investment notion measured to the amount of issued extra-payments. Here the public equipment is understood as the number of infrastructural (roads, buildings) and economical realizations (i. E harbour) undertaken by the public authorities. These works include altogether the buildings and the important operations of conversion and development. The aim is to measure the public buildings impact on the town but also to the population growth within a colonial setting. On the whole the town growth will have been profitable to minorities : europeans, african elite against the population mass.
Abstract FR:
Il s'agit entre 1930 et 1957 d'evaluer la somme des constructions publiques realisees dans la ville de dakar par les autorites coloniales. A ce titre, la definition de l'equipement public depasse largement la notion d'investissement mesuree a l'aune des plus-values generees. L'equipement public, ici, est compris comme la somme des realisations infractructurelles (batiments, voies. . ) et economiques (port notamment) financees par les pouvoirs publics. Ces travaux englobent a la fois les constructions ainsi que les grandes operations de transformation et d'amenagement. Au total, le but est de mesurer l'impact des constructions publiques sur la croissance de la ville mais aussi des populations dans un cadre colonial. Au total, la croissance de la ville a profite aux minorites : europeens, elite africaine contre la masse de la population.
