Abstract
This issue is one of two that spotlight Francophone West Africa, a long-planned project. Here, all the papers are in French, an editorial decision informed by the need to increase further the visibility and readership of the journal in French speaking countries worldwide. To be sure, this has been the case in the past decades as revealed in our analysis of downloads of papers in French following increased submission and published peer review of such papers. Yet, as the journal became swamped with submissions in French, we feel we must not relent in ensuring that they do not lag behind those in English.
The second of the two issues will be in English with, of course, all papers focusing on Francophone West Africa. It will focus on different socio-economic aspects of some of the countries the authors chose for their respective research and analyses.
Dr Hélène V Quashie, of LARTES-IFAN Université Cheikh Anta Diop / Institut des Mondes Africains Senegal was charged with the responsibility of co-ordinating all the papers for this special issue, in terms of getting them ready after the mandatory blind review. She titled the issue which is essentially a monograph given its specialised focus.
这个问题是两个备受关注的法语西非项目之一,这是一个计划已久的项目。在这里,所有的论文都是法语的,这是一项编辑决定,因为需要进一步提高该杂志在世界法语国家的知名度和读者群。可以肯定的是,正如我们对法语论文下载量的分析所揭示的那样,在过去几十年中,这种情况一直存在,因为这些论文的提交量增加,并发表了同行评审。然而,随着该杂志被法语投稿淹没,我们觉得我们不能松懈,确保它们不会落后于英语投稿。两期中的第二期将是英语,当然,所有论文都聚焦于法语西非。它将重点关注作者为各自的研究和分析选择的一些国家的不同社会经济方面。塞内加尔LARTES-IFAN大学谢赫·安塔·迪奥普/非洲世界研究所的Hélène V Quashie博士负责协调本期特刊的所有论文,在强制性盲审后做好准备。她为这期杂志命名,鉴于其专业重点,这期杂志本质上是一本专著。
