This book was released on 2008 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this endnote address delivered at the 11th General Assembly of CODESRIA, held in Maputo in 2005, Sundaram notes that over three decades of economic stagnation, contraction and increased poverty have taken a huge toll on Africa's economic, social and political fabric; and pro-active efforts are urgently required in order to build new capacities and capabilities for development. He argues that much of the ostensible conventional wisdom regarding African development and poverty is often both erroneous and harmful; and calls for greater 'policy space' for African governments to choose or design their own development strategies, as well as implement more appropriate development policies. (This dual language edition is in both English and French).

Download or read book Developing a Sustainable Economy in Cameroon written by Ajab Amin and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2008-05-15 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developing a Sustainable Economy in Cameroon is an ambitious effort as the authors try to set a blue print for Cameroon's economy. In the 1980s facing economic crisis, and as dictated by the structural adjustment programme, Cameroon sharply cut public investment expenditures before later cutting government consumption which were followed by privatisation, liquidation of public companies and reduction in the size of the public sector. All these measures are believed to have had devastating effects on the economy. Given the performance of the economy so far the authors suggest that much more effort, with a strong commitment of the main stakeholders, is required to guarantee sustainable economic development in Cameroon. Truly, very few countries in Africa possess such enormous human and natural resources as Cameroon does. This volume brings out the challenges Cameroon faces in its quest for development as well as for designing appropriate strategies for addressing those development challenges.

Download or read book Agricultural Trade Policy Reforms and Trade Liberalisation in the Mediterranean Basin written by Aikaterini Kavallari and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bilateral and multilateral trade agreements have been gaining attention and relevance in recent years. For the countries around the Mediterranean basin the most important regional trade agreements involved are the Euro-Med Agreements, which influence their trade flows as they aim to promote regional integration. Based on the theory of applied welfare economics, this study analyses empirically the impacts of different policy scenarios on the agricultural sector of Mediterranean countries by using an extended and modified version of the trade policy model AGRISIM. The results show that trade liberalisation, either multilateral or bilateral, would be beneficial for the Mediterranean agricultural markets due to positive welfare effects and should be considered by policy makers.

Download or read book European Yearbook written by B. Landheer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le troisieme volume de l'Annuaire Europeen suit le schema deja trace par ses predecesseurs, qui, pour autant que nous puissions en juger d'apres les critiques publiees, paraissent avoir rencontre l'approbation generale des lecteurs auxquels l'ouvrage Hait destine. Le volume III est cependant plus mince que les volumes anterieurs: l'ampleur du second volume (et, partant, son cont) ayant depasse les previsions initiales, on a voulu en effet maintenir une moyenne raisonnable au double point de vue du format et du prix. Les articles reproduits dans ce volume et la documentation comprise dans la partie II embrassent, selon nous, les principaux developpements intervenus dans la cooperation europeenne au cours de la periode consideree, c'est-a-dire, en principe, l'annee civile 1955 avec, pour des raisons de continuite, certaines incursions dans l'annee 1956. On relevera cependant une lacune majeure: l'omission de toute documentation concernant la Relance europeenne amorcee en juin 1955, a Messine, par la Con ference des six ministres des affaires Hrangeres des Etats mem bres de la Communaute Europeenne du Charbon et de I' Acier et les negociations ulterieures de Bruxelles en vue de l'etablissement du Marche commun et de I'Euratom. Etant donne que ces nego ciations Haient encore en cours au moment ou ce volume a He mis sous presse, i1 a semble preferable d'attendre leur conclusion et d'en donner un aperc;u plus complet dans le volume IV.
