Abstract

This work presents an ethnography of maintenance of boreholes in the central zone of Senegal. It presents practices of the informal privatization through which agents of the State sell their services. This dynamic of informal privatization is the consequence of the shortage of manpower and facilities in the Senegalese administration.
