4.1 Case studies on export diversification for selected African countries: Economic Report on Africa 2007
| |
| So far, diversification trends in relation to African economies indicate that different
countries have achieved varying results. The overall conclusion is that, in general,
African economies have failed to make gains beyond their initial positions in the
early 1980s. It has also been pointed out that they reacted defensively to the crises
that beset them in the 1980s. Their macroeconomic stabilization policies did not
create an environment conducive for dynamic response, as a good number of countries
in Asia and Latin America were able to do. Their defensive response as seen in
the oil factor, perpetuated the status quo and worsened it in some instances. Earlier
gains in such countries as Gabon, Nigeria and Sudan were eroded. |
