This volume contains an authoritative examination of the key themes in Africa's fiscal reforms and trade liberalization, and the continent's prospects for improving trade and development, by the leading scholars in the field. Differing reform strategies are assessed with a range of case-studies of fiscal reform in Kenya, Cote d'Ivoire and Tanzania. The impact of trade liberalization and the linking of aid and trade by donor countries are also assessed.
