- Description:
- The relationship between the public good and the welfare state is being reexamined in many industrialised and developing countries. One reason for this is the impact of the global economy on productivity, capital accumulation, unemployment, and social dislocation. This article examines how the global economy influences the public good by focusing on the incipient welfare systems in Africa. Particular emphasis is placed on the need for diversity in developing welfare programmes in Africa. This article identifies key components needed to develop a viable welfare state in a global economy.

- Description:
- This case study looks at the introduction to Zimbabwe of a new sorghum milling technology developed in Botswana. This technology, it was assumed, would, by making the processing of small grains less laborious, encourage increased production of these grains. In the analysis of what actually happened in the milling project in one community focus is on the mill as a business enterprise and on issues of community organisation and management Thecase study concludes with the view that while there may be a number of non-monetary benefits accruing from the milling project, there has not been a noticeable increase in sorghum production nor is the financial self-sustainability of the mill clear.
