This title was first published in 2002: Analyzing labour market
trends in sub-Saharan Africa since 1970, this volume employs data
collected from the International Labor Organization (ILO), United
Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) and World Bank
(the RPED surveys). It examines the economics of the labour market
against the presistent decline in real wages over some 20 years in
some of these countries. Setting the African story against the
background of wage-employment trends in other regions of the world,
the author proceeds to examine the impact of this decline on the
rural-urban earnings gap. The consequences of the declining wage
levels on the lifetime earnings of workers and on trends in labour
productivity are then discussed, followed by an analysis of the
employment and wage structure in African manufacturing firms.
