Abstract :
[en] In the borderland between Cameroon and the Central African Republic (CAR), population movements have long been an integral part of the political and economic landscape. Such population movements officially became controlled and regulated international migrations after the formalization of borders-colonial then national. However, those dynamics have only been challenged recently by a combination of factors linked to the rise of violence in the CAR and the resulting “humanitarianization” of migratory flows. By focusing on the international aid operation initiated in 2013, we will show how it helps strengthen a long-porous border and integrate peripheral margins within Cameroon's national territory.
