Africa index :selected articles on socio-economic development = Catalogue Afrique:articles choisis sur le développement économique et social

Abstract

The Africa Index No. 81, published by the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa in December 1999, serves as a bibliographic journal that compiles selected articles on socio-economic development across the continent. This issue includes a comprehensive list of periodical articles, series titles, and occasional papers published in 1998 and 1999, categorized by descriptor terms from the UNBIS Thesaurus to facilitate user navigation. The index is divided into two main sections: the first presents bibliographic citations along with their subject descriptors, while the second offers various indexes (author, title, subject, geographic) arranged alphabetically for easy reference. The articles cover a wide range of topics, including agricultural engineering, economic development, aid coordination, and environmental information, reflecting the diverse challenges and opportunities faced by African nations. The publication aims to enhance accessibility to relevant literature and invites feedback for future improvements.
