ISBN: 9780821389614 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 161 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Based on five different analytical tools and data sources, the book examines in detail the binding constraints in each of the subsectors relevant for Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA): apparel, leather goods, metal products, agribusiness, and wood products. Ethiopia is used as an example, with...

While Zambia's recent growth has been impressive, it has not been accompanied with adequate job creation. To be sustainable and to create productive employment for its people, growth needs to be accompanied by structural transformation. Such transformation entails a growing share of manufacturing output in the economy. Light Manufacturing in Zambia shows that Zambia has the potential to become regionally competitive in several light manufacturing subsectors by leveraging its comparative advantage in natural resource industries such as agriculture, livestock, and forestry. Light Manufacturing...

Light Manufacturing in Vietnam: Creating Jobs and Prosperity in a Middle-Income Economy
ISBN: 9781464800344 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Light Manufacturing in Vietnam makes the case that, if the country is to continue along a rapid economic growth path and create jobs, it must undertake a structural transformation that can lift workers from low-productivity agriculture and the mere assembly of imported inputs to higher-productivity activities. Vietnam needs to address fundamental issues in the manufacturing sector that, until now, have been masked by economic growth. The book shows that there is a dichotomy between domestic enterprises and enterprises supported by foreign direct investment. The dominant state-owned...

Performance of Manufacturing Firms in Africa: An Empirical Analysis
ISBN: 9780821396322 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Performance of Manufacturing Firms in Africa: An Empirical Analysis sheds light on the characteristics of formal and informal manufacturing firms in Africa by comparing these firms with firms in other regions. Drawing on two data sources, the authors find that there is a very low share of manufacturing in GDP in Africa and in African exports. Most African manufacturing firms are informal, perhaps because the enforcement of registration and licensing regulations is not strict. These firms are also smaller than firms in other regions and few export. Labor productivity is low in Africa relative...

Light Manufacturing in Tanzania: A Reform Agenda for Job Creation and Prosperity
ISBN: 9781464800320 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Light Manufacturing in Tanzania argues that for Tanzania to remain one of the fastest growing economies in Sub-Saharan Africa, it has to make progress in the structural transformation that can lift workers from low-productivity agriculture and the informal sector to higher productivity activities. Manufacturing, which has been the main vehicle throughout the world to achieve this transformation, has remained stunted in Tanzania. Using new evidence, the book shows that feasible, low-cost, sharply focused policy initiatives aimed at enhancing private investment could launch Tanzania on a path...
