Description and Table of Contents
Description
Reconstruction and development in Africa necessitates structural adjustment. However, the implementation of structural adjustment in Africa has spawned a considerable, and still on-going, debate with vociferous advocates on both sides of the issue, particularly with respect to the the efficacy of structural adjustment programmes (SAPs) as an antidote to Africa's development crises. This work contributes to this debate with a mixture of analytical views and ideas covering a range of countries and sectors on the role and impact of structural adjustment programmes on the process of reconstruction and development in Africa.
