Abstract

The case of Ghana has been held up as a model for structural adjustment programmes in Africa. The Association of Ghana Industries organized a workshop of policymakers, researchers and entrepreneurs, and a symposium in 1994 to examine the effects of the programmes on Ghanaian industry ten years after their inception. This article describes some of the conclusions: although the programmes were initially welcomed by industry they have largely ignored microenterprise, and the mainly traditional manufacturing sector has still not returned to the levels of the 1970s.
