英文摘要The agricultural and food crisis which hit Niger and other neighbour countries during the last years put once again under the limelight a certainregion of Africa, Sahel, which has been undergoing chronic difficulties for several decades (such as rain shortages, desertification and dramatic decrease of food production). Such a major ecological crisis, which for about forty years has been striking recurrently this part of the African continent cannot be pulled apart from the historical trend which is currently referred to with the generic term "internationalization" or "globalization". This trend bears a particular violence upon the small farming communities that remain in the periphery of the system. Under different shapping, that is the same dynamics, in different ways, which is applied in Africa, Asia and Latin America. This paper does not term intend to look at this question with a general view but brings the indication of a particular case, in order to stimulate the reflection about other local realities, notably some of those which can be found in Brazil. It shows more specifically that small family farmers who are among the poorer and more marginalized ones in the world and who are also submitted to very severe natural conditions, seem to be able to react, under a limited but actual efficacy or to necessities and constraints which operate at a temporal and spatial scale that goes far beyond their structured daily habits. This situation raises a major theoretical question: do global responses solely exist for global mechanisms of domination? Or should a pertinent strategy also include local responses, drawing upon the small farmers' innovation and initiative capacity?
