dc.description.abstract | Summarizing currently available information, this paper describes the main lines of economic evolution of the Sahel countries in recent years. The first section surveys the economic impact of the drought, classifying and describing briefly the various economic effects of drought. The second focuses on changes in income distribution caused by drought, inflation, and government policies. In a concluding section, a number of key policy issues suggested by the Sahel's recent economic experience are discussed. | en_US |
