- Summary:
- The Ghana Country Profile is a comprehensive review of the country and the people, providing a concise account of its historical and political background, and tracing the growth of modern Ghana. Since 1981, following years of corrupt military rule, Ghana has undergone economic structural adjustment and political liberalization, and is often hailed as a success story of economic recovery. Through the personal testimonies of Ghanaian farmers, traders, school children, and stockbrokers, this Country Profile shows how social and economic constraints are affecting daily life, and what Ghanaians themselves are doing to shape their own future.
