Terme préférentiel

banana republic  

Définition(s)

  • In his 1904 novel, Cabbages and Kings, the author O. Henry first referred to a “banana republic,” and the resulting image of a corrupt, fruit-dependent country came from his own impressions of Honduras at the turn of the twentieth century. Over time, however, the term has transcended its specific historical, temporal, and geographical origins. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Banana Republic]
