La commercialisation du gibier au Gabon. Anthopologie du conflit des imaginaires du rapport … l'animal
2011  Full Book

Through the example of the marketing game market in Libreville, this research aims to deconstruct the two imaginary contradictory that mobilize several categories of actors located in multiple issues of the respective consumer and animal protection. As such, it proposes to reassess the cultural models applicable to man's relationship to animals, and their historical transformations in the contemporary context of Gabon. This context is well marked by the confrontation of ideas and behaviors front endogenous binding requirements to conceptual and behavioral exogenous. The aim of our study is to show that a dualistic view summary between advocates of animal feed and animal protection advocates, should be replaced by a more detailed analysis of the positions of each other on the chessboard reports institutional and cultural to the animal that is permitted or otherwise not hunt. These reports are translated into knowledge and expertise on the animal who seems to spend some moments in the commodification totemisation, not as we know clearly where the animal is considered as subject or object knowledge and action. It is therefore important to develop a detailed work of imaginary context in the acting of a country faced at the same time answers to questions of food, sustainable development and conservation of wildlife in its forest ecosystems.
