Economic structural adjustment programme and Zimbabwe's social developmental challenges 1990-2000
Abstract
This study examined Zimbabwe's socio-developmental challenges after the implementation of the Economic Structural Adjustment Programme (ESAP). The program was implemented to rejuvenate the economy that had gone through years of stagnation. This study has adopted a qualitative methodology to provide an in-depth understanding of the topic. A relevant case study has been utilized in order to provide or adequately address the research questions of the study. The study has used secondary data and employed collection techniques such as using documents and official reports; journal articles; internet articles, text books and newspapers articles. The findings of this study are very diverse. Zimbabwe had social challenges even before the implementation of ESAP. Even though the implementation of ESAP was for economic alteration or to rejuvenate the economy of the country the results opposed the objectives of the policy and the dreams of the country. The implementation of ESAP brought more devastating challenges for the country.
