Zveřejnění dvousvazkové evalvační zprávy Světové banky o strukturálním přizpůsobení v Africe v roce 1994 vyvolalo řadu kontroverzních reakcí a znovu rozpoutalo debatu o tom, kam se rozvoj kontinentu ubírá. Pro mnohé akademiky afrického původu byla tato studie dalším důkazem o tom, že se realita a dogma často rozchází. Tato publikace je postavena na nutnosti kritického ohodnocení programů strukturálního přizpůsobení jako rozvojové strategie.

The publication of a two-volume evaluation study on "Adjustment in Africa" by the World Bank in 1994 sparked off major controversies and re-ignited the debate about the direction of Africa's development. For most African scholars who live in and study these economies, the world Bank reports were yet another major disjuncture between reality and dogma. The need for critical appraisal of structural adjustment programas a development strategy provides the immediate rationale for this publication.
