Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses the impact of the African debt crisis on poverty. The author studies the relationship between debt and socio-economic development in Sub-Saharan Africa. Furthermore, Sonko analyzes the impact of debt-induced expenditure adjustments, including budgetary retrenchment in an African economy undergoing structural adjustment. Sustainable, self-reliant development, debt relief, and the redesign of structural adjustment programs to make them less controversial and more effective in Africa are required. The overall analysis is conducted with a view to what the author refers to as the "state of global interconnectedness," implying the need for global economic policy coordination and assistance in finding solutions to Africa's development problems.

Book The Debt   Growth Link in Sub Saharan Africa

Download or read book The Debt Growth Link in Sub Saharan Africa written by Chinedu Chinedu and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-01 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the economic crisis that hit most developing countries in the early 1980s, public deficits and the stock of foreign debt in Cameroon consistently grew over the two decades to the beginning of the 21st century. While it has been argued that foreign currency debt and widening budget deficits are impediments to economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa, the differences in socio-economic conditions across these countries make generalisations about them inadequate. This book provides an insight into the particular case of Cameroon by assessing the relationship between its external debt and economic growth rate. The in-depth analysis of the country's debt profile, contained in this book, would be useful for both scholars and policy-makers who seek a better understanding of the debt-growth nexus.
