description An investigation on whether the Dutch Disease is operating in Sudan has been undertaken in this study. The factors determining Dutch Disease (oil sector as a percentage of GDP) for the year 1999 to 2010, with the focus on other independent variables such as (industrial growth rate, unemployment rate and total number of people employed).
