Developing Africa: A Modernization Perspective (International Development Resource Books)

The countries of the African continent suffer from numerous and severe economic maladies that inhibit their chances for effective economic growth. The problem confronting Africa's policy makers is how to combine overall economic growth with a more equitable distribution of income and economic assistance. This resource book examines the experiences of the African countries in implementing development programs and policies during the 1970s, and offers some conclusions and suggestions for further study. To assist those directly involved or interested in the formulation and implementation of economic development policies, the editor has provided statistical information and a descriptive bibliography for further research.Pradip K.
