This study, first published in 1974 in conjunction with the Overseas Development Institute, analyses Ghana's economy over twenty years and highlights the problems of the debtor/creditor relationship between developed and developing countries.The study concludes with an assessment of the creditors' contribution to Ghana's critical debt position through their readiness to supply funds without adequately analysing the viability of the programme. 410 0$aRoutledge library editions.$pDevelopment ;$vv. 15. 606 $aDebts, External$zGhana 607 $aGhana$xEconomic policy 607 $aGhana$xEconomic conditions$y1957-1979 615 0$aDebts, External 676 $a336.343509667 700 $aKrassowski$b Andrzej$01699733 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910814235903321 996 $aDevelopment and the debt trap$94082219 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03122nam 2200613Ia 450 001 9910146417303321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9783540854289 010 $a3540854282 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-540-85428-9 035 $a(CKB)1000000000746576 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000319686 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11243375 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000319686 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10339092 035 $a(PQKB)10808111 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-540-85428-9 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3064146 035 $a(PPN)134130286 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000746576 100 $a20090622d2009 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn|008mamaa 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aQuantum and semi-classical percolation and breakdown in disordered solids /$fA.K.

It sets out to connect - for the first time and in a coherent fashion - many recent theoretical and experimental advances in adjacent fields, such as the investigation of nonlinear current-voltage characteristics of 'quantum-dotted' materials or Zener breakdown in Mott or Anderson insulators. Last but not least, a final chapter explores the application of quantum percolation methods to the rapidly emerging field of quantum computing and communication. 410 0$aLecture notes in physics ;$v762. 606 $aPercolation (Statistical physics) 606 $aQuantum theory 615 0$aPercolation (Statistical physics) 615 0$aQuantum theory. 676 $a530.41 686 $aUD 8220$2rvk 701 $aSen$b A.
