Preface JOURNAL OF AFRICAN ECONOMIES,VOLUME 13, AERC SUPPLEMENT 2, PP. i–ii The African Economic Research Consortium (AERC) holds two Research Workshops a year. Their purpose is to offer a rigorous environment for African economists to present their research and receive constructive criticism voiced by their peers and resource persons from within and outside the region. A series of plenary papers are presented at the beginning of each workshop to encourage further research and to present the state of the art on particular policy-relevant topics. This is a unique opportunity to capture the issues deemed critical to sub-Saharan Africa’s economic development. The analysis of these issues is undertaken by leading economists worldwide.
