[en] New actors appeared in the mining sector of Katanga, formerly the monopoly of a public corporation, and transformed its relationship to the state and the global economy. By contrast with a legalist approach, this article tries to better understand their role in the future of Katanga by following their career in the recent history of the region. [fr] Autrefois dominé par un monopole public, le secteur minier katangais voit apparaître au cours des années 1990 de nouveaux acteurs, qui opèrent une reconfiguration du capitalisme local dans son rapport à l'Etat et à l'économie globale. Contrairement à la démarche qui consiste à juger de la légalité ou non de leurs activités, cet article se propose de suivre leur trajectoire dans l'histoire récente du Katanga, afin de mieux évaluer leur rôle dans le devenir de la région.
