Abstract
Followig the "lost dacade" of the 80's, Subsaharan África in the 90's is commited to economic liberalism and the expansion of the private sector. In this connection, the urban informal sector provides incomes and jobs. Thus, it becomes a major concern in terms of coping strategies or In terms of economic development. Two dimensions encompassing the informal sector are examined: first, real activities relating to the output of commodities and services supplied by non registered small-scale enterprises; second, savings and credit resources belonging to informal finance. The relevance of the so-called "dualism" questionned in so far as the informal sector is linked to the official economy.
