Актуальность проблематики (АОМ: ОКМ-13, 22; АМ: ОКМ-8,16, ПК-36; ПОМ: ПК-6) 5 The reviewed dissertation is written on a modern political and economic theme and touches upon issues of international influence on the regional situation using economic levers of influence. The chronological period in question is 1970-2016, namely from the time of the proclamation of the republic in the Gambia and until the end of the authoritarian regime two years ago. The topic is quite particular and unusual especially for the research in Russia. The macroeconomic policy and the IMF mission to stabilize the international system led to the development of special structural programs in post-colonial countries such as the Gambia and had a significant impact on the development of the state. First of all, these are the courses in conditions of Import substitution industrialization in the 60ies within the newly independent state in SubSaharian Africa 2.

In my opinion, in the analysis, the researcher should be more impartial. __________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1.
