Cameroon is marked by two undeniable facts. On the one hand, the State has been trying since independence to control urban growth by setting up several instruments for land use planning, but on the other hand, urban growth is exploding, bringing with it many problems, including disorder and urban anarchy. In spite of the dynamism of the public authorities in terms of land use planning, the realities in Cameroon show rather an accentuated fragility of the economy, a disintegration of the territory and the productive systems. It is noted that leaders have enormous difficulties in providing appropriate solutions to problems such as the economic crisis, unemployment, lack of economic competitiveness, urban anarchy, lack of control over land and population growth in urban areas, in short, the lack of control over urban growth. This book establishes theoretical and empirical links between land use planning and urban growth in Cameroon using the Granger causality test, and proposes somepossible solutions for controlling urban growth in this country.
