The economic performance of African countries south of the Sahara
generally has been poor during the past two decades. External
factors such as high oil prices, deteriorating terms of trade, and
wars, and formidable internal factors such as corruption,
chauvinism, authoritarianism, and violence have continued to plague
the region. Whereas in the 1980s the Subsahara was overwhelmed by
drought, devaluation, and debt, the 1990s have brought the paradox
of civil strife and a complex transition to democracy. This volume
surveys the major political, economic, social, ecological, and
gender related aspects of Subsaharan Africa's struggle toward
democracy. Its essays pose two fundamental sets of ideas: that the
internal equilibrium can be restored only through institutional
changes with these countries; and that the political and economic
dilemmas in the region are closely related to issues of gender and
the environment. The volume will be of interest to scholars and
students of comparative politics, developmental economics, and
African studies.
