Governance of road infrastructure in Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo

Omer Kambale Mirembe

No 2012.10, IOB Working Papers from Universiteit Antwerpen, Institute of Development Policy (IOB)

Abstract: During the 1960s and 1970s, many African states chose a means of infrastructure development that was focused largely on the public sector. However, the debt crisis, the substandard performance of public enterprises and poor governance caused many of them to experience socio-economic failure. During the 1980s, proposed recovery solutions included a significant reduction in public expenditure, resulting in a reduction or even suspension of the production of certain public goods and services.
