'Inequality in Africa '
by Ravi Kanbur
Summary:
Africa will be particularly vulnerable to rising inequality because of its
natural resource base, rapid urbanization, and the ethno-linguistic diversity of
its population.
It is neither feasible nor desirable to stand against the tide of technical
progress and global integration which underlies the forces for both growth and
rising inequality.
Policy makers should intervene proactively to achieve a more equal distribution
of assets, addressing in particular the inequality of human capital in its many
dimensions, starting with education and health.
The needs for aid targeted towards these ends may become less available as
African countries cross into middle income country status, thus losing
concessional resources for development.
