American Journal of Economics and Sociology, 1993, vol. 52, issue 2, 193-208

Abstract: Abstract. Nigeria has adopted a program of structural adjustment economic reforms since 1986 in an effort to retrace steps toward economic stability. This Nigerian economic recovery effort based on structural adjustment is an attempt to cure a classic although extreme symptom of the “Dutch disease,” but despite this determined effort, success may be threatened by two fundamental economic errors that contributed to the problem in the first place.
