Abstract: 

From "native" to "informal", 1955-1982.- Studies of Third World urban economies have progressively evolved toward a bipolar distribution: on the one hand, an attempt to identify everywhere the empirical characteristics of a single general system, the "informal sector"; on the other hand, an explicitation of the various shapes of particular systems. Unlike those authors who insist upon antinomies, we are undertaking the historicisation of "informal" objects and notions.
