Summary: France's presence on the African continent has often been presented as 'cooperation' and part of French cultural policy by policy-makers in Paris ? and quite as often been denounced as 'the longest scandal of the republic' by French academics and African intellectuals. Between the last years of French colonialism and France's sustained interventions in former African colonies such as Chad or Ct̥e d'Ivoire during the 2000s, the legacy of French colonialism has shaped the historical trajectory of more than a dozen countries and societies in Africa.
