Abstract
In contrast to the other former French colonies of Sub-Saharan Africa and the Indian Ocean, Madagascar is characterised by a very particular configuration of characteristics which are a reflection of its situation as an island, its pre-colonial history and the political and economic choices it has made especially since the beginning of the 1970s.
