Abstract. — In Mauritius, economical and demographical problems are bound since the very start of the 19 th century : in order to develop the sugar economy, promoted by the British, They must call for the indián labour as a substitute of the slaves fred by the english law. Contrarily to the other tropical islands that, facing same problems, try to diversify their agricultural outputs, Mauritius remains devoted to sugar monoculture. It was clever enough to use other opportunities : thanks to its numerous and skilful labour, it could have established an important sector of light industries devoted to export, and its natural features have gone into service of touristic development through the establishment of modern understructures. The results are the effects of a dynamical policy and constant efforts but problems of empoyment and commercial balance are not resolved for that. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
