Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Wisconsin - Madison, 2002.
Over the course of the last two decades, third world countries have gotten increasingly integrated into the global economy. The vast majority has shed their protectionist policies in favor of more market-oriented policies. As such, their macroeconomic policies have included a reduction in the public sector, privatization of state-owned enterprises, cost recovery measures for the provision of social services, currency devaluations and trade liberalization. The international financial institutions have touted these adjustment policies as the panacea to the development woes of third world countries. Trade liberalization and the reduced role of the state are expected to create a congenial environment for citizens with an entrepreneurial spirit to blossom. While much has been written about both the prospects of market liberalization for development and the costs of liberalization efforts especially on the poor and women, few studies take a holistic look at both the limits and delimits of a neo-liberal approach to development on particular segments of a population.

This dissertation serves as a step in that direction. It draws on data collected over an eighteen-month period in Ghana and Thailand using a combination of participant observation and in-depth interviews. I trace the socio-economic lives of thirty-two Ghanaian female traders of global consumer items who have adopted transnational lives in order to appropriate the opportunities that Ghana's adoption of more market-oriented policies provides. In focusing on the various mechanisms that these traders employ in order to be able to first take advantage of the opportunities that trade liberalization provides and second, minimize the constraints that trade liberalization provides, this dissertation concludes that structural adjustment policies are Janus-faced providing both opportunities for and constraints on individuals' attempts at business success.
