Abstract: A coup d'état is an illegal attempt by military or civilian officials to replace the incumbent leadership by force. However, it is sometimes difficult to define a "coup d'état. The term has been used by many analysts to refer to violent political actions in fact (e.g., the invasion of the Capitol in Washington) or in public expressions of the military to change domestic security policy in order to safeguard national unity. In many countries, often developing and African, "Coups d'Etats" are more frequent, notably because on the one hand the institutions are not yet sufficiently strong and on the other hand the economic and social conditions of these countries do not fail to raise problems of daily life that produce popular discontent. The national economy of the countries concerned suffers more or less strong consequences at the end of a coup d'état, depending on the damping power exercised by multinational firms, the inertia of national economic actors or the appearance of internal conflicts (civil war) or economic sanctions by the international community.
