The essays in these two volumes originate from a conference in London held in October 1987. Volume 1 examines the economic effects and Volume 2 the social and political impact. Together, they represent an African challenge to the assumptions and theories of the international monetary system, upon which IMF and Bank policies are based. Through sectoral and case studies from anglo- and francophone Africa, the essays reveal the harsh effects of these policies on the lives not only of Africa's children, workers, women and peasants, but also of the African middle class. In their place, they present alternative solutions, including a repudiation of foreign debts, the formation of an African debtors' Cartel under the OAU, and democratization of the IMF and the World Bank
