Produktbeschreibung

Africa stands at a public budgeting and fiscal administration cross-road. On the one hand, incomes, education, and life-expectancy rates are all on the rise. On the other hand, poverty is still widespread and economic inequality is widening. Now more than ever, it is important for administrators to ask the complicated questions about how African nations should be allocating their fiscal resources to advance the course of judicious development, especially given population growth, quality of life demands, and a growing need for government accountability. This book compiles chapters from authors across countries to address the complex issues involved with decision-making and implementation.
