There’s a post on “neutralpolitics” asking about “How does France practice neocolonialism in former African colonies? What is known about the effects of this practice?”

Ideally, the sources would stick to hard economic analysis (mentioning coups is fine if there is hard documented evidence). I know, it’s annoying to have to feign neutrality, but it’s sometimes the only way to reach people sometimes. If possible, focused on the CFA Franc Zone.
