Sprache: Deutsch Broschur 4;; 160 Seiten; Bibliotheksstempel auf Rückseite Haupttitel, sonst wohlerhaltenes Buch; Tabellen; Diagramme; (Adjustment and Equity in Developing Countries) - This study has been prepared in the framework of the Development Centres research programme on Adjustment and Equitable Growth. It has been undertaken together with companion studies in six other African, Asian and Latin American countries to offer an in-depth analysis of the adjustment process initiated in the early 1980s and often accused of being conducted at the expense of equity. Since adjustment is frequently associated with austerity measures which are particularly hard to support for the poorer groups of the population, this fear is understandable. But several country studies have shown that the dichotomy between growth and equity does not hold in the simple form in which it is usually presented. What is more, in the case of Ghana, adjustment followed a path quite different from that in other countries. This makes it a case of particular interest for study also for those involved in designing adjustment programmes elsewhere. Adjustment was initiated in Ghana after a long period of decline. This long decline made the situation of the country look particularly desperate in the early 1980s. However, having reached such a low level of economic and social performance by its own historical standards seems to have helped to muster the necessary political will and courage in the country to engage in radical changes. This strong commitment, combined with massive external support, has managed to reverse the downward trend of many economic and social indicators. Thus, a certain balance between economic concerns of investment and production, and social concerns such as health and education spending can be observed. Nevertheless, there were also victims of adjustment and other vulnerable groups for whom a special Programme of Actions to Mitigate the Costs of Adjustment (PAMSCAD) was designed. This was an innovative initiative, in keeping with.

Sprache: Deutsch Broschur 4;; 168 Seiten; Bibliotheksstempel auf Rückseite Haupttitel, sonst wohlerhaltenes Buch; (Adjustment and Equity in Developing Countries); Tabellen; Diagramme; - This study is part of the Development Centres project on Adjustment Programmes and Growth with Equity . It is of special interest for several reasons: COte dIvoire was long considered a brilliant model of development based on agriculture, but in fact it seems to have entered an impasse from which it will be difficult to emerge. A particular effort has been made in this study to analyse employment, the agrarian system and family structures in some depth. This work is thus the fruit of a multidisciplinary effort to which an agricultural engineer and a sociologist have contributed in addition to the economists. It has also benefited from the co-operation of the Cote dIvoire government, which in particular authorised the analysis of the 1985 Household survey. The history of adjustment in COte dIvoire is a long one, for it dates back to difficulties that appeared in the late 1970s. It shows that these are not simply a deviation from normal, as might be thought for certain other countries, but are part of a more complex and far-reaching process, to which both internal and external factors are contributing. This character of the problem has not always been recognised, and some commentators have spoken of an end to the crisis in the mid 1980s. We now know that this was unfortunately only a temporary improvement and the factors causing imbalances in this economy and in the markets for its principal export products have since gained the upper hand again. While the Cote dIvoire government has sometimes acted rapidly and vigorously, it is clear that the measures and their implementation have not always gone far enough. But it must also be recognised, as shown by the street demonstrations on the one hand and the authors analysis on the other, that the State has often had little room for manoeuvre. The use of a computer simulation model has clearly .

Sprache: Deutsch Broschur 4;; 177 Seiten; Bibliotheksstempel auf Rückseite Haupttitel - sonst sehr gut; komplett bilingual franz. - engl. - This selected bibliography, the latest of 16 annual numbers in the senes, was compiled in 1993 by Muriel Hubert. Muriel Hubert holds a DESS in information and documentation systems from the University of Lille III. and a DEA in contemporary history. She has also attended training courses in documentation, notably at the Fondation pour le Progres de IHomme. This project was carried out with the collaboration of the personnel of the Development Centre library. Alice Watson, documentalist of the External Co-operation Programme, also gave valuable assistance through her management of the computerised data base. The references contained in this bibliography come from diverse sources: the Development Centre library collection, bibliographieal journals and library acquisitions lists such as those of the CIDARC and documents from the Sahel Club, for which the Development Centre library is the main partner for documentation. The extensive distribution of this bibliography is a concrete way for the Development Centre to participate in the OECDs actions in favour of the least developed countries. - - -.
