"Privatize!" sounds the command to African states crumbling under the burdens of providing basic services to their populations. However, in East Africa the dividing line between the private and public is actually very blurred. These essays examine the provision of specific services and the interaction between NGOs and government agencies in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.

Editorial Reviews
Review
The book as a whole is without reservation to be recommended as a much more sophisticated introduction to this problem than has been available heretofore....a thought provoking book, which strives to set the story straight on privatization in East Africa ... Service Provision under Stress is a highly readable and compelling collection which addresses issues of the utmost importance for those concerned with service provision and the well-being of the citizens of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.' - Christy Cannon Lorgen in JOURNAL OF AFRICAN ECONOMIES
