This book was released on 2013-06-07 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Africa is too often regarded as lying on the periphery of the global political arena, this is not the case. African nations have played an important historical role in world affairs. It is with this understanding that the authors in this volume set out upon researching and writing their chapters, making an important collective contribution to our understanding of modern Africa. Taken as a whole, the chapters represent the range of research in African development, and fully tie this development to the global political economy. African nations play significant roles in world politics, both as nations influenced by the ebbs and flows of the global economy and by the international political system, but also as actors, directly influencing politics and economics. It is only through an understanding of both the history and present place of Africa in global affairs that we can begin to assess the way forward for future development.

Download or read book Economic Development in Africa written by Olusola Akinrinade and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11-07 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic development is one of the key issues that has confronted Africa since the beginning of independence, more than a quarter-century ago. The countries of Africa have not only recognised the need for international assistance, but also the need for self-help along with various collective efforts in tackling the problems of development. The principal concern of Economic Development in Africa is with the contributions of the international environment to the development process in Africa. It considers efforts conceived within bilateral, multilateral and regional frameworks, acting as an introduction to the economic and political dimensions of these approaches. This specially commissioned collection brings together a number of scholars working in the field of International Relations with specialist interest in Africa.

Unevenness and inequalities form a central fact of African economic experiences. This book challenges conventional wisdoms about economic performance and possible policies for economic development in African countries, using the striking variation in economic performance as a starting point. African Economic Development: Evidence, Theory, and Policy highlights not only difference between countries, but also variation within countries. It focuses on issues relating to gender, class, and ethnic identity, such as neo-natal mortality, school dropout, and horticultural and agribusiness exports. Variations in these areas point to opportunities for changing perfomance, reducing reducing inequalities, learning from other policy experiences, and escaping the ties of structure and the legacies of a colonial past. African Economic Development rejects teleological illusions and Eurocentric prejudice, criticizing a range of orthodox and heterodox economists for their cavalier attitude to evidence. Instead, it shows that seeing the contradictions of capitalism for what they are - fundamental and enduring - may help policy officials protect themselves against the misleading idea that development can be expected to be a smooth, linear process, or that it would be if certain impediments were removed. Drawing on decades of research and policy experience, this book combines careful use of available evidence from a range of African countries with economic insights to make the policy case for specific types of public sector investment.

This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. Based on a blend of knowledge and perspectives from a variety of disciplines this volume examines the human-environment interaction in Africa, with a focus on the economic, social and political processes that generate environmental change and problems in this region. Currently there are controversies over and challenges to such concepts and issues as environment-human relationships, ecological resilience, decertification, sustainable development, globalization and North-South dialogue. This book draws upon past and present research findings to discuss these issues. It features: an examination of the characteristics, processes and patterns of environmental crises; an analysis of the principal issues and challenges facing policy makers and implementers; and the promotion of awareness of theoretical, empirical and comparative research. The volume not only seeks to answer some of the old questions, but also open up new ones for further discussion.

This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2013 in the subject Politics - Region: Africa, grade: Pass, , course: International Relations, language: English, abstract: Through this paper, Africa accelerates an African Agenda by embracing the philosophy of African Renaissance premised on the renewal and re-birth of Africa. This paper therefore focuses on a continent aspiring to engage in dialogue and forge a partnership with the rich Global North to implement the millennium developmental plan like NEPAD. The primary lesson from this paper is that the continent must ensure that it has the full support of 54 states and that continental plans cannot be implemented by a single country whose leadership is contested. Africa’s challenges in implementing the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD) have address fundamentals of the idea of NEPAD and its dependency underpinning. Some of these challenges include inter alia structural, endogenous and exogenous factors which continue to constrain Africa’s endeavours. So the argument is that Africa failed to implement or was initially destined to fail. Deploying the dependency theory, the thesis delves deeper into Africa’s development trajectory to reflect that NEPAD, just like preceding developmental plans such as the Lagos Plan of Action (LPA), was destined to fail as long as there was no clear paradigm shift from the long standing and perpetual asymmetric donor-recipient relationship although NEPAD is espoused as a partnership but it is still steeped within weakened neo-colonial relations that are incommensurate with Africa’s developmental path.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thoughtful discussion probes the international roots of Africa's civil conflicts and lackluster economies. Analyzing an unwitting system that creates a set of incentives inimical to development, the authors offer a new way of thinking about Africa's development dilemmas and the policy options for addressing them. Weak states, aid dependence, crushing debt, and enclave economies, argue the authors, create disincentives for long-term economic growth and even peace. The nature of Africa's interaction with the international system often supports these negative features; thus, the remedy must come from a radical restructuring of that relationship. Africa's Stalled Development heeds that call by presenting specific and innovative prescriptions for change that are sure to stimulate a much-needed debate. -- Publisher description.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A survey of subsistence or artisanal fishing in the Okavango Delta of Botswana, the report concludes that people who fish for food in the Delta are socio-economically marginalized, dominated by a single ethnic group, the BaHambukushu, predominantly women, with limited access to economic resources. Fishing is opportunistic and seasonal and mainly done with traditional baskets. The fishery's greatest value lies in the use of fish for food for domestic consumption. Some subsistence fishers claim that government and commercial fishermen try to stop them from basket fishing. The report points to the lack of a national fisheries policy. Such a policy could help support and safeguard this major source of livelihood.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although much has been written about African development since the beginning of independence, officials in government have contributed very few studies directly involved in development work. This book fills that gap by providing a practically-oriented analysis of Africa's ongoing development problems. In contrast to most theoretical works which attempt to explain underdevelopment as the result of a lack of capital, manpower shortages, or colonial history, Abubakar proposes that Africa's development problems should be seen in terms of dependency and lack of capital, manpower shortages, or colonial history. He argues that Africa's development problems should be seen in terms of dependency and a lack of commitment to develop. He argues further that the African governments' attitudes toward development, which until now have not received adequate attention in the literature, are a crucial factor in explaining Africa's problems with underdevelopment. Abubakar asserts that while it is true that colonialism has contributed to underdevelopment, the colonial experience should cease to be a scapegoat for Africa's failure to develop. Similarly, he demonstrates that aid has never been a solid basis for African development. Based upon his extensive experience, Abubakar concludes that three things are necessary to solve Africa's economic problems: a concrete commitment to development on the part of African governments; a realistic effort to end dependence on the global economic system; and a people-oriented and self-reliant government strategy.

Book excerpt: In this study, the author proposes a programme for the humanization of African development through the installation of man-centred development programmes and self-reliant activities. In essence, the sociological perspective, the concern with the provision of basic needs and in particular with the amelioration of living conditions in the rural areas, reinforce the plea in the book for greater humanization of development.

Book excerpt: In 1963 there was a French agronomist named René Dumont who published a book: False start in Africa in this book it explains the economic and development difficulties that Africa was facing so since then what is the real situation of Africa today? The book is a theory-led conceptual account of the contemporary challenges that face African Development and the factors that may interact and influence at the interface of Africa development. African natural resources play vital roles in the world economic by providing the raw materials that most of the industrialized countries need for manufacturing goods and supplying services in every sector for economic growth and well-being. How come that Africa which is full of these natural resources can be the poorest continent? Africa has steadily engaged in the challenges of the twenty-first century, which began at the beginning of liberalization, which has increased economic integration, even for less developed countries or LDCs to benefit. However, there are questions about the capabilities of countries belonging LDC, especially Africa, which has cast doubt on the continent's economic progress and development. The growing list of number of key considerations and aspects that Africa needs to deal with is seemed to be impossible to know what to start.
