Abstract: In Sub-Saharian Africa, continent destined to receive massive investments, social conflicts are "hidden" behind political turmoil and armed conflicts. Nevertheless, it is a big problem for international business : strikes, premises occupations, managers evictions, low morale of the staff. The article aims at highlighting, on the basis of the case of Burkina Faso during its regime change (2014-2015) some characteristics of labour conflicts in West Africa and examining the implications for international management in Africa.
