Notizen:
Changes in Africa rarely go by halves – some developments have been spectacularly successful, such as education, but the failures have also been notable, particularly the lack of expansion in employment. In the words of a recent survey: ‘The most disturbing feature of the employment situation in Africa in recent years has been that the absolute level of wage employment has changed so little, despite high capital investment and the rapid growth of the public sector.’1 Table I shows an accurate and general picture of the problem as it confronts Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Zambia; this article is concerned to examine some of the dimensions, both economic and political, of its solution.
