Fondements et historique du droit et de la politique de protection des consommateurs au gabon
La protection du consommateur apparaît comme une préoccupation constante des autorités Gabonaises. Cependant historiquement le processus fut loin d’être acquis. De la période coloniale jusqu’à l’indépendance le Gabon n’a pas connu de mouvement en faveur du consumérisme ni de texte en matière de protection des consommateurs l’administration coloniale craignant des mouvements sociaux assimilables aux activités syndicales.
