The article explores three inherent contradictions of neo-liberal economic reform in sub-Saharan Africa, with particular reference to Ghana, Mali, Niger, Zambia and Madagascar. First, it examines the paradox that the groups most disadvantaged by economic adjustment have been the main champions of democratic reform. Second, the article addresses the dilemma faced by governments that key areas of economic and social policy are determined by external agencies, thus undermining their legitimacy. Third, it analyses the conflicting economic and political logics of neo-liberal democracy. The article concludes by pointing to ways of reconciling economic adjustment and democracy in the sub-Saharan context and assesses the so far meagre results of governments' and donor agencies' adoption of a social democratic approach to economic adjustment. |
