Abstract

Depuis des décennies, les pays de l'Afrique subsaharienne mettent en oeuvre les programmes d'adaptation structurelle des institutions de Bretton Woods. Les résultats sont toutefois loin d'être éclatants. La pauvreté extrême et le sous-développement sévissent toujours en Afrique subsaharienne et l'on reconnaît maintenant en général qu'une nouvelle stratégie s'impose de touteurgence.

Abstract

African Voices on Structural Adjustment presents 14 in-depth studies on the history and future of structural adjustment in Africa. Each study appraises the performance of structural adjustment policies (SAPs) with respect to a particular sector or issue. Each evaluates the compatibility of SAPs with the requirements for long-term development in Africa and, most importantly, each presents a truly African perspective. The contributors represent a outstanding collection of leading African economists and development experts.

Abstract

Our Continent, Our Future presents the emerging African perspective on this complex issue.

They underscore the need to be sensitive to each country's unique history and current condition. They argue for a broader policy agenda and for a much more active role for the state within what is largely a market economy. Finally, they stress that Africa must, and can, compete in an in
