Book Synopsis IMF and World Bank Sponsored Structural Adjustment Programs in Africa by : Kwadwo Konadu-Agyemang
Download or read book IMF and World Bank Sponsored Structural Adjustment Programs in Africa written by Kwadwo Konadu-Agyemang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2001: Bringing together geographers, planners, political scientists, economists, rural development specialists, bankers, public administrators and other development experts, this volume questions the benefits of Structural Adjustment Programmes (SAPs). It critically assesses the impact of SAPs from a wider perspective than a purely economic one, highlighting concerns about impacts of adjustments on the more vulnerable elements of society such as social welfare, the environment, labour, gender and agriculture. Revealing both the costs and benefits of the economic restructuring programme, the book also suggests alternatives to current development models, and how SAPs can be made more sustainable. An original and comprehensive addition to the collections of both students and practitioners of development.
Book Synopsis Ghana's Adjustment Experience by : Eboe Hutchful
Download or read book Ghana's Adjustment Experience written by Eboe Hutchful and published by Heinemann Educational Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did the Ghanaian state, after flirtation with structuralist theories and state intervention in the early 1960s, followed by persistent resistance to fiscal correction and a long economic slide in the 1970s and early 1980s, turn the economy around? How did it manage to implement relatively rigorous "neoliberal reforms" in the mid-1980s and early 1990s? And why, after the "economic miracle" of the 1980s, has reform increasingly run aground in recent years? As Hutchful argues, the Ghanaian adjustment strategy is deeply flawed, unsustainable and subject to recurring revisions by international financial institutions such as the World Bank or the International Monetary Fund. The Ghana case has focused many of the controversies of adjustment in Africa. As such, Hutchful's book marks a significant contribution to the literature on the role the state plays in impeding or encouraging economic and political development.

Book Synopsis Structural Adjustment and Mass Poverty in Ghana by : Kwabena Donkor
Download or read book Structural Adjustment and Mass Poverty in Ghana written by Kwabena Donkor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1997, this volume looks at the rationale for, the implementation of, and the economic and social effect of the World Bank Structural Adjustment Policy (SAP) in Ghana from the early 1980s to the early 1990s. It shifts the focus from a primarily economic evaluation of these programmes and includes issues such as their impact on vulnerable groups within the Ghanaian society and on poverty in general. Therefore, it must be asked whether the ‘ordinary Ghanaian’ has gained anything from any wealth creation in Ghana. The book will be useful for both academic and policy purposes.
Book Synopsis Our Continent, Our Future by : P. Thandika Mkandawire
Download or read book Our Continent, Our Future written by P. Thandika Mkandawire and published by IDRC. This book was released on 2014-05-14 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Continent, Our Future presents the emerging African perspective on this complex issue. The authors use as background their own extensive experience and a collection of 30 individual studies, 25 of which were from African economists, to summarize this African perspective and articulate a path for the future. 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 increasingly globalized world and, perhaps most importantly, that Africans must assume the leading role in defining the continent's development agenda.
Book Synopsis Poverty Reduction Strategies in Action by : Joe Amoako-Tuffour
Download or read book Poverty Reduction Strategies in Action written by Joe Amoako-Tuffour and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the inception of the HIPC Initiative, the story of the design and implementation of poverty alleviation strategies has largely been told through the filters of development partners and the Bretton Woods Institutions. Poverty Reduction Strategies in Action examines the efforts in Ghana to reduce poverty and initiate changes that it believes are essential to ensure a prosperous future for its citizens in the 21st century. It chronicles the achievements, pitfalls, and looming challenges of a government, its people, and its external partners in fashioning out and implementing anti-poverty and pro-growth policies. This edited volume, by a group of independent researchers, examines Ghana's experience: what was done, how it was done, what was left undone, the lessons learned, and fills the void in the development literature.

Book Synopsis Adjustment for Growth by : Mr.Michael T. Hadjimichael
Download or read book Adjustment for Growth written by Mr.Michael T. Hadjimichael and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1996-10-15 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past two decades, sub-Saharan Africa has lagged behind other regions in economic performance. The important overall indicators of performance, however, mask wide differences among countries. On the whole, countries that effectively implemented comprehensive adjustment and reform programs showed better results. Their experiences demonstrate that an expansion in private saving and investment is key to achieving gains in real per capita GDP. The four papers included in this publication provide a cross country analysis that assesses empirically the role of publlic policies in stimulating private saving and investment in the region in 1986-92 and describe the adjustment experiences of Ghana (1983-91), Senegal (1978-1993), and Uganda (1987-94).
