"After two decades of economic reform programmes, the majority of countries in Sub-Saharan Africa still face the challenge of renewing the development progress that they were achieving in the 1960s and early 1970s. Renewing Development in Sub-Saharan Africa brings together leading specialists in different aspects of African development, to assess the performance of the sub-Saharan economies over recent decades, the main political, economic and geographical problems and constraints that the continent currently faces, and future policy strategies. Renewing Development in Sub-Saharan Africa is made up of sections on conflict and power, agriculture and the rural sector; industry and the urban sector; international trade and transport constraints; gender, health and education. These cover some of the important debates such as the effects of structural adjustment on economic performance, the impact of AIDS, the problems of corruption, the social and economic costs of war and conflict. the role and effectiveness of NGOs, the potential contribution of the private sector, the effect of globaliation on African industrial and agricultural prospects, problems of the landlocked countries, the strategies for agricultural and rural development, food aid, the options for poverty alleviation, small-scale enterprise possibilities, education, health and gender issues and policies. Collectively and individually, the chapters provide succinct statements of the present situation, progress and problems in each of the different sectors and in sub-Saharan Africa as a whole, an insight into current issues and debates, as well as a wealth of statistical information. The emphasis of the book is on the identification of effective strategies that will enable individual countries to exploit successfully their growth opportunities and to meet poverty-reducing and other key equity objectives, rather than repeating arguments contrasting the merits of agriculture versus industrial development versus human capital formation.
