Abstract
This paper analyzes the natural resources governance framework in Zambia. The research is the result of a broader project on natural resource governance with interviews performed in a number of countries in sub-Saharan Africa. The goal of the paper is to identify the gaps and inconsistencies within the Zambian natural resource policy framework, in an effort to broaden the understanding of how governance of the sector may be streamlined and optimized. It further offers suggestions on how other sectors, such as education, may be central to the development of a more successful natural resource framework. The paper focuses on Zambia as a country with a long history of mining and a relatively stable political environment, yet one in which tensions between government and the private sector remain, and policies on natural resource extraction which have been particularly volatile in recent years.
Keywords:
- Natural resources,
- Governance,

Résumé
Cet article analyse le cadre de gouvernance des ressources naturelles en Zambie. La recherche est le résultat d'un projet plus vaste sur la gouvernance des ressources naturelles comprenant des entretiens réalisés dans un certain nombre de pays d'Afrique subsaharienne. Ce papier vise à d'identifier les lacunes et les incohérences dans la politique zambienne en matière de ressources naturelles dans le but d'élargir la compréhension de la rationalisation et de l'optimisation de la gouvernance dans ce secteur. Il propose également des suggestions sur la façon dont d'autres secteurs, tels que l'éducation, peuvent être essentiels à l'élaboration d'un cadre plus performant en matière de ressources naturelles. Le document se concentre sur la Zambie en tant que pays avec une longue histoire de l'exploitation minière et un environnement politique relativement stable, mais où subsistent des tensions entre le gouvernement et le secteur privé et où les politiques d'extraction des ressources naturelles ont été particulièrement instables ces dernières années.
