Title:US Aid Policy in Africa: No Room for Democracy
Author:Douglas Hellinger
Location:Vol.20 No.55 (November 1992), pp84-87
 Across Africa, people from all walks of life have intensified their struggle for democratic change, demanding the right at both local and national levels to shape the political and economic environment in which they live. Meanwhile, in Washington, the foreign policy establishment continues to promote all-encompassing structural adjustment programmes as the solutions to Africa's economic, social and environmental crises. This contradiction raises the central question regarding the future of the continent and the US role in it: Who decides for Africa.
