On the Mechanics of Economic Development
Résumé: Ce papier passe en revue les raisons d'investir dans le capital humain dans un pays en développement, évalue les performances accomplies au cours des ann ées 1990 et 2000 en matière d'éducation et de santé, particulièrement dans les pays africains, et soumet à une analyse critique les réformes de politiques qui ont sous‐tendu ces performances. Les contraintes et opportunités offertes par la mondialisation sont examinées dans le contexte des pays africains. Enfin, des recommandations sont faites pour accélérer l'accumulation d'un capital humain de qualité en Afrique à travers l'éducation et la santé.
