    Mali, Western Africa

    This paper presents a new type of land
    market analysis relevant to cities with plural tenure
    systems as in West Africa. The methodology hinges on a
    systemic analysis of land delivery channels, which helps to
    show how land is initially made available for circulation,
    how tenure can be formalized incrementally, and the
    different means whereby households can access land. The
    analysis is applied to the area of Bamako in Mali, where

    Niger

    This paper examines spending plans
    suggested by the recent literature regarding Dutch disease
    and examines their implications to Niger relative to its
    expanding mineral sector. The key to the benefits of
    significant mineral revenue lies with the productivity and
    supply responses of spending. If significant output gain is
    ensured, then there is little difference across the spending
    plans in their effects on real consumption. The overshooting
