5.0 out of 5 stars Answers for Economic Development Summiteers, August 22, 2002
By 
This review is from: Aid and Reform in Africa (Paperback)
An introduction to Aid & Reform in Africa by James Wolfensohn points out that for aid programmes to succeed they must have a country-owned development strategy. This point is reiterated throughout the ten case studies compiled in this book edited by Shanta Devarajan at the World Bank. This book offers a thorough review of the interrelationships involved in assessing the effectiveness of aid in Africa. It compares the degree of political and economic reform and their relationship to the success of aid programmes in the Ivory Coast, Congo, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mali, Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. Given the relatively even distribution of aid amongst all the countries reviewed, there remains a wide disparity in the success of aid programmes. Each case study is written by nationals of the respective countries who offer first-hand evaluations of the respective aid situations. The conclusions derived from these studies offer excellent guidance for the future direction of aid to the African continent.
