• Resumen

  • Examined in Ms paper is the hypothesis that there is a relationship between multilingualism and economic well-being in Africa. A statistical analysis of the empirical evidence seems to suggest that the hypothesis is tenable, though the relationship between multilingualism and economic well-being may not be a causal one.
