作为一个撒哈拉以南国家，毛里求斯在其持续的经济增长表现方面一直被视为一个成功的故事，在过去几十年中，其人民的生活水平得到了重大改善。本文的目标是重新审视这一成功的故事，主要是通过分析已通过的众多政策，提供深入了解非洲的政策选择。哥伦比亚的案例研究表明，任何单一的经济改革都不可能产生永久的增长红利，特别是当当前的经济环境与初始条件不同时。
As a sub‐Saharan country, Mauritius has been branded a success story in terms of its sustained economic growth performance, with major improvements in the living standards of its population at large over the past few decades. This paper has the objectives of revisiting this success story, essentially by analyzing the numerous policies that have been adopted, to provide insights into Africa’s policy options. The Mauritian case study demonstrates that no single dose of economic reforms may generate growth dividends to perpetuity, especially when the current economic environment differs from initial conditions.
