Download or read book South Africa's Emergent Middle Class written by Grace Khunou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-02 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is drawn from diverse studies that grapple with Black Middle Class experiences in contemporary and historical South Africa. The chapters present research from diverse disciplines, and tackle issues related to being black and middle class, using both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Like many other social phenomena, the black middle class concept is seen as complex and not easy to pin down. As a result, conceptualizations from these chapters are dynamic and relevant for understanding the position of the black middle class in contemporary South African society. An interesting dynamic explored by contributors is the critical engagement with the usually reductionist notions of black middle class experiences as ahistorical, homogenous experiences of a group of conspicuous consumers. These limiting notions are unpacked and repositioned in how the book is structured. This book was published as a special issue of Development Southern Africa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a groundbreaking study of the emergence of a unique African Union legal system, with contributions from a diverse collection of scholars and practitioners. It highlights how law stands at the heart of the successful regional integration effort in Africa and explores, among either issues, the extent to which African Union law is having an impact on domestic laws. This trend has been particularly noticeable in the area of human rights, the rule of law, democratic principles, and aspects of constitutional law. Furthermore, the book examines how the African Union is engendering new norms from its legal order, such as the non-indifference norm, the norm on unconstitutional change of government, free trade, free movement of people, economic regulation, and democratic constitutionalism. The book also analyses how the African Union legal order has led to the emergence of a continental-level judicial system. The quasi-judicial system put in place under the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights, and administered by the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights, is now complemented by the African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights. This book contends that the continental-level judicial system is playing a crucial role in the moulding of emergent norms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The current population youth bulge in Africa highly commends the timeliness of this insightful publication, focusing on the life stories of young people who have persevered to surmont interminable difficulties in order to make something of their future. The powerful messages conveyed in the publication are of relevance not only to the youth of Africa who should be motivated by these worthy role models to also teach for the skies. The conviction that problems can be overcome, no matter the odds. It should equally convert policy makers to more proactively co-opt the energies of the youth, in order to unleash their latent potential, towards accelerated political and economic transformation of the continent. May there be more visionary luminaries like Olubanke King-Akerele in Africa's search for progress." -Dr. Mary Chinery-Hesse, Member of the Panel of the wise of the AU, Former Chief Advisor to the President of the Republic of Ghana & Deputy DG of the International Labor Organization (Retired) This book "Growing" of Africa's Emergent Leadership offers more than a mere publication about Africa's Youth and improvement programs. Even though they are without doubt the backbone of Africa's further expansion, Olubanke King-Akerele's work on the "Growing" of Africa's Emergent Leadership is both inspiring and exceptional, just as Olubanke herself. But above all, she is a visionary and this is exactly what Africa needs. Africa is now leading continent, which needs visionaries to further strengthen it's position in the world. This book is an inspiration, not only for me, but for all people feeling passionate about Africa and the development of the youth and it delights me to support Olubanke and her work in every possible way.-Prof. Armoogum Parsuramen G.O.S.KFounder-President Global Rainbow Foundation Minister of Education Mauritius (1983-1995) Olubanke King-Akerele has produce a masterpiece work that is not only relevant for today's developmental challenges, but also very likely to stand the test of time. The strength of the work lies in the visionary apporach and superb analyses of the author, which is itself largely informed by her own personal and professional growth and experience both on the national stage, in Liberia and in the international arena, spanning more than three decades. Anyone truly interested in Africa's development more broadly, and in particular, how leadership could positively influence that development, must have a copy of this work, eloquently written by one of Africa's foremost scholar diplomats. -Lalla Aicha Ben-Barka, Assistant Director-General, Africa UNESCO, Paris. The "Growing" of Africa's Emergent Leadership, demonstrates a succinct style of impressive clarity, and focuses on the seriousness and legitimacy of Africa's next generation and the need for continuous cultivation of the continent's majority constituents. The organization of the book reflects Honourable King-Akerele's vast experience in youth development which inspired her writing. My unequivocal recommendation of the book rest in it's stimulating and exciting, yet challenging reality - a must read for youth of all ages and adults, especially governments and the private sector facing the challenge of youth development for eventual national leadership.Dr. Emmet Dennis, President of University of Liberia

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rare and timely intervention from Kingsley Chiedu Moghalu, Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, on development in Africa. To many, Africa is the new frontier. As the West lies battered by financial crisis, Africa is seen as offering limitless opportunities for wealth creation in the march of globalization. But what is Africa to today's Africans? Are its economies truly on the rise? And what is its likely future? In this pioneering book, leading international strategist Kingsley Moghalu challenges conventional wisdoms about Africa's quest for growth. Drawing on philosophy, economics and strategy, he ranges from capitalism to technological innovation, finance to foreign investment, and from human capital to world trade to offer a new vision of transformation. Ultimately he demonstrates how Africa's progress in the twenty-first century will require nothing short of the reinvention of the African mindset. 'Africans seriously analyzing Africa's opportunities are all too rare. Kingsley Moghalu writes with insight and authority' Paul Collier 'Savvy . . . distinguished' Mark Malloch-Brown 'Unique in the depth of its insight, the ambition of its scope, and the clarity of its argument. Kingsley Moghalu brings a remarkable intellect and his vast experience to this tour de force on Africa's economic transformation. This is a truly weighty contribution to understanding Africa's developmental dilemma and its quest for a more prosperous future' Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala 'Insightful and analytical . . . sheds instructive light on Africa's position in the world. It is a testament to the palpable optimism that encompasses Africa while frankly addressing the myriad challenges that lie ahead for its economic transformation' Shashi Tharoor Kingsley Chiedu Moghalu is Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria. He was the Founder and CEO of Sogato Strategies S.A., a global strategy and risk management consulting firm in Geneva, Switzerland. He has previously worked for the United Nations for 17 years in strategic planning, legal, development finance and executive management. His previous books include Global Justice and Rwanda's Genocide.

Download or read book Handbook of Africa's International Relations written by Tim Murithi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-05 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa’s international relations have often been defined and oriented by the dominant international and geopolitical agendas of the day. In the aftermath of colonialism the Cold War became a dominant paradigm that defined the nature of the continent’s relationship with the rest of the world. The contemporary forces of globalization are now exerting an undue influence and impact upon Africa’s international relations. Increasingly, the African continent is emerging as a vocal, and in some respects an influential, actor in international relations. There is a paucity of analysis and research on this emerging trend. This timely book proposes to fill this analytical gap by engaging with a wide range of issues, with chapters written by experts on a variety of themes. The emerging political prominence of the African continent on the world stage is predicated on an evolving internal process of continental integration. In particular, there are normative and policy efforts to revive the spirit of Pan-Africanism: the 21st century is witnessing the evolution of Pan-Africanism, notably through the constitution and establishment of the African Union (AU). Given the fact that there is a dearth of analysis on this phenomemon, this volume will also interrogate the notion of Pan-Africanism through various lenses – notably peace and security, development, the environment and trade. The volume will also engage with the emerging role of the AU as an international actor, e.g. with regard to its role in the reform of the United Nations Security Council, climate change, the International Criminal Court (ICC), the treaty establishing Africa as a nuclear-free zone, Internally Displaced Persons, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), international trade, the environment, public health issues, security, and development issues. This book will assess how the AU’s role as an international actor is complicated by the difficulty of promoting consensus among African states and then maintaining that consensus in the face of often divergent national interests. This book will in part assess the role of the AU in articulating collective and joint policies and in making interventions in international decision and policy-making circles. The Handbook will also assess the role of African social movements and their relationship with global actors. The role of African citizens in ameliorating their own conditions is often underplayed in the international relations discourse, and this volume will seek to redress this oversight. Throughout the book the various chapters will also assess the role that these citizen linkages have contributed towards continental integration and in confronting the challenges of globalization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging Africa describes the too-often-overlooked positive changes that have taken place in much of Africa since the mid-1990s. In 17 countries, five fundamental and sustained breakthroughs are making old assumptions increasingly untenable: • The rise of democracy brought on by the end of the Cold War and apartheid • Stronger economic management • The end of the debt crisis and a more constructive relationship with the international community • The introduction of new technologies, especially mobile phones and the Internet • The emergence of a new generation of leaders. With these significant changes, the countries of emerging Africa seem poised to lead the continent out of the conflict, stagnation, and dictatorships of the past. The countries discussed in the book are Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cape Verde, Ethiopia, Ghana, Lesotho, Mali Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Rwanda, São Tomé and Principe, Seychelles, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia.
