Budgeting for the Military Sector in Africa The Process and Mechanisms of Control

In this comprehensive study, 15 African experts describe and analyse the military budgetary processes and degree of parliamentary oversight and control in nine countries of Africa, spanning across all the continent's sub-regions. Each case study addresses a wide range of questions, such as the roles of the ministries of finance, budget offices, audit departments and external actors in the military budgetary processes, the extent of compliance with standard public expenditure management procedures, and how well official military expenditure figures reflect the true economic resources devoted to military activities in these countries.Omitoogun, Wuyi is the author of 'Budgeting for the Military Sector in Africa The Process and Mechanisms of Control', published 2006 under ISBN 9780199262663 and ISBN 0199262667.
