Les territoires de la criminalité à Lagos et Ibadaban depuis les années 1930

[eng] Laurent Fourchard - Criminal areas in Lagos and Ibadan since the 1930s.. In Nigeria's two largest cities, Lagos and Ibadan, urbanist and policing concerns are emerging almost simultaneously but the anticipated links between poor neighbourhoods and criminality are not in evidence : violent crime like delinquency occurs readily outside the geographical boundaries of poverty. This study hopes to show that high crime areas, far from overlapping geographic areas of poverty or poor living conditions, in fact coincide with a wide range of income groups depending on the time period and the charges.
