Abstract
This paper is an attempt at helping its author and readers
better understand a few of the problems connected with development.
The specific problem being discussed is that of shortrun
export instability. Most, if not all, of the developing
countries of the world are exporters of primary products. These
commodities are notoriously unstable, with their prices and volumes
traded on the world market continually changing. This paper is
designed to examine the causes of this export instability in both
general case, and within a case study of short-run export
instability in Ghana, a primary producer of cocoa in West Africa.
In addition, the paper examines the domestic consequences of export
instability in the general case and with specific reference to
Ghana.
