| 總結: | This paper argues that the development of human capital in the public sector should be an important ingredient in any proposed set of 'second-generation' reforms for Africa.

The paper develops a simple theoretical framework to discuss these issues and the continent's experience with foreign technical assistance in supplementing the low level of domestic human capital. |
