N1 - 8 N2 - The objective of this study is to carry out an economic analysis of the attractiveness of American Pentecostalism in Cameroon. The analysis focuses on a sample of 1 548 individuals living in the cities of Yaoundé and Douala, contacted as part of a field survey. Inspired by theoretical and empirical literature, particularly in economics and sociology, the econometric results, obtained by using a multinomial logit model, reveal that the attractiveness of American Pentecostalism in Cameroon is further explained by the strong physical, financial and spiritual assistance available in the Pentecostal religious communities.2JEL Codes: D10, D23, D60, Z12 UR - https://shs.cairn.info/journal-revue-d-economie-du-developpement-2018-1-page-53?lang=en&redirect-ssocas=7080 ER -
