Homosexualité et pédophilie, une menace à l’activité touristique au Cameroun ?
HOMOSEXUALITY AND PAEDOPHILIA, A THREAT TO THE TOURISM IN CAMEROON?

Summary/Abstract: The tourism is perceived by the Cameroonian government at the same moment as the source of growth, development and instrument of struggle against poverty. For that purpose, the goverment aspires to make of the country a tourist destination by arousing the interest of at least 500 000 tourists a year to fill the conditions of the world organization of the tourism (OMT). But stumbling blocks still mortgage the flight of this tourism. To the rank of these stumbling blocks, we quote constantly the insufficient number of infrastructures of reception, the neglect of the tourist places and the absence of a “tourist culture” on behalf of the Cameroonians. The comment of this communication consists not in denying the dividends which the country could pull of the tourist activity but to say that the homosexuality and the paedophilia in certain tourists engage themselves and which are presented in the social debate as deviant practices of dominion that instrument the poverty could constitute a mortgage.
