Özet:

 


Since independence (1960s), African countries are regularly animated by crisis (political
alternation, ethnic conflicts, tribalism, wars, coup d’états). These plagues that consume African
society have serious impact on the economic growth of these countries, and diversely affect
neighboring countries known for their relative stability. Thus, the purpose of this study was to
evaluate the impact of political crises in Central African Republic (CAR) on the Cameroon health
performances. We used Nafziger crude mortality model based on famine, conflict and population
displacement. The econometric analysis of the model shows a strong contribution of the critical
political situation in CAR on the degradation of the health state of people living in Cameroon. Several
reasons justify this argument: the influx of refugees from one country to another and the dissemination
of diseases amplified by the precariousness of their living condition on the Cameroon territory. This
proofs that political instability in Central African Republic (CAR) negatively affects the health state of
the Cameroonian population.
