Résumé anglais Joseph Armando Soba, Towards Hollywood's Hegemony : Mechanisms of American Cultural Penetration in Africa At the end of the 1960s, American film companies established a presence in Africa in order to assure the distribution of their films which had been previously handled by European companies. In April 1961, the American Motion Picture Export Company Africa was created and it quickly supplanted the British Colonial Film Unit in English-speaking Africa. The Hollywood studios then went after the solidly established French companies in French-speaking Africa. By 1969 the Americans had succeeded in breaking the French monopoly.
