Book Synopsis Zimbabwe: The Link Between Politics and the Economy by : Godfrey Kanyenze
Download or read book Zimbabwe: The Link Between Politics and the Economy written by Godfrey Kanyenze and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2022-03-31 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this accessible and authoritative book, Godfrey Kanyenze provides a comprehensive and far-reaching analysis of the socio-economic development in Zimbabwe in light of the expanding authoritarianism and the ongoing destruction of democratic institutions during the four decades after independence. Kanyenze describes the various phases of the socio-economic development starting with 1980 when the people of Zimbabwe saw their hard-won independence and new democracy as a promise for a "better life for all". Kanyenze highlights how by dismantling all barriers of economic and legal restraint, and that despite being necessary, The land reform programme put the political and financial interests of the elite before those of the people which continues to this day. Kanyenze reveals the governmental attacks on civil society, and notes how economic policy was not even part of an "authoritarian bargain", an implicit arrangement between ruling elites and citizens whereby citizens relinquish political freedom in exchange for public goods. And he concludes this analysis with a current update of Zimbabwe today, where citizens have nothing -neither political freedom nor public goods. This impressive and gripping account of an authoritarian capitalist system and a country in decline is a must-read for students, researchers, policymakers and those who want to better understand how politics and the economy, interests, conflicts, and power work together.
Download or read book Turkey written by Aksel Ersoy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turkey's economy is a complex mix of modern industry, a traditional agricultural sector, and a rapidly growing private sector. At the same time the country is positioning itself and preparing for entry into the European Union. That Turkey should meet her national economic goals is, therefore, particularly important. A vital factor in achieving these will be the country's regional economies and their associated economic policies. To date, however, many of the policy interventions adopted have been based on models drawn from developed economies and the outcome has raised a number of concerns. Are policy interventions drawn from advanced economies appropriate for transitional economies such as Turkey? Aksel Ersoy's book is the first work to explore the dynamics of local and regional development in Turkey. In addition, he offers a new theoretical framework for understanding the local and regional dynamics of emerging and transitional economies more generally.

Book Synopsis Turkey by : International Monetary Fund
Download or read book Turkey written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2012-01-27 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2011 Article IV Consultation highlights that the Turkish economy continued to grow strongly through the first half of 2011, reaping the benefits of institutional reforms and revamped policy frameworks implemented in the previous decade. However, growth became increasingly fueled by domestic demand and imports. Policy responses were insufficient to prevent the development of a large current account deficit and high inflation. Executive Directors have commended the Turkish authorities for their agile economic management during the global crisis, which, together with structural reforms undertaken earlier, contributed to a rapid recovery.
Book Synopsis A Status Update on Fiscal Exit Strategies by : International Monetary Fund
Download or read book A Status Update on Fiscal Exit Strategies written by International Monetary Fund and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a modest recovery in the global economy underway, and amid rising concerns about the sharp increase in government debt in several countries, debate has increasingly focused on the need to identify and implement fiscal exit strategies. This paper reviews the medium-term plans of 25 countries - the G20 plus six others with large adjustment needs - and finds that most of them have made reasonable progress in defining these strategies. Nevertheless, strategies fall short in some areas, including committing to long-term debt targets, spelling out adjustment measures in detail, and tackling rising health care costs.
Download or read book Food for All written by Uma Lele and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 1063 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a historical review of international food and agriculture since the founding of the international organizations following the Second World War, including the World Bank and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the World Food Programme (WFP) and into the 1970s, when CGIAR was established and the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) was created to recycle petrodollars. Despite numerous international consultations and an increased number of actors, there has been no real growth in international assistance, except for the work of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The book concurrently focuses on the structural transformation of developing countries in Asia and Africa, with some making great strides in small farmer development and in achieving structural transformation of their economies. Some have also achieved Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG2, but most have not. Not only are some countries, particularly in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, lagging behind, but they face new challenges of climate change, competition from emerging countries, population pressure, urbanization, environmental decay, and dietary transition. Lagging developing countries need huge investments in human capital, and physical and institutional infrastructure, to take advantage of rapid change in technologies, but the role of international assistance in financial transfers has diminished. The COVID-19 pandemic has not only set many poorer countries back but starkly revealed the weaknesses of past strategies. Transformative changes are needed in developing countries with international cooperation to achieve better outcomes. Will change in the United States bring new opportunities for multilateral cooperation?"--
Book Synopsis Post-Independence Development in Africa by : David Mhlanga
Download or read book Post-Independence Development in Africa written by David Mhlanga and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-07-11 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book Post-Independence Development in Africa: Decolonisation and Transformation Prospects revisits the development debates and development realities in Africa. This is achieved by offering theoretical comments about post-independence development in Africa and by providing historical details pertaining to the development approaches adopted in Africa immediately after independence in the 1960s and mid-70s. Sitting at the intersection of two sets of scholarly literature, namely; literature on development and literature on development discourses and practices in Africa, the book comprises a mixture of detailed sector-specific accounts of the status of development on the continent. The chapters in the book also contribute to clarifying how the two strands of literature intersect using several case studies across Africa.

Book Synopsis The Report: Kenya 2014 by : Oxford Business Group
Download or read book The Report: Kenya 2014 written by Oxford Business Group and published by Oxford Business Group. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The country has a strong private sector and received encouraging forecasts of new oil, gas and water reserves, which if harnessed appropriately bode well for future growth. While a pending international court case resulting from prior elections provoked a measure of uncertainty, the country’s medium to long-term economic outlook is robust. With over 40% of the population under the age of 15, Kenya stands to benefit from a significant demographic dividend, provided that sufficient jobs can be found when this population bulge enters the workforce. The country has a reasonably sized industrial base, competitive infrastructure and a large agricultural sector, all of which offer opportunities for capital-intensive investment.
Book Synopsis Towards Democratic Development States in Southern Africa by : Godfrey Kanyenze
Download or read book Towards Democratic Development States in Southern Africa written by Godfrey Kanyenze and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2016-12-14 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dawn of the twenty-first century heralded an apparent change of fortunes for most sub-Saharan African economies, with annual growth averaging over 5% for fifteen years. However, this was not accompanied by structural transformation: poverty, food insecurity, unemployment and inequality persist. Structural transformation has not been - and indeed cannot be - delivered by market forces and neo-liberal economic policies; it requires a state committed to development, and to achieving it in a democratic way. To what extent do the countries of Southern Africa exhibit the characteristics of such a developmental state? What steps, if any, do they need to take in order to become one? The book answers the questions with respect to South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Angola and Malawi. Godfrey Kanyenze and his colleagues have assembled a distinguished team of writers to take the temperature of the regional political economy, and chart a path for its future development.

Book Synopsis Turkey by : International Monetary Fund. Fiscal Affairs Dept.
Download or read book Turkey written by International Monetary Fund. Fiscal Affairs Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses findings of the evaluation of fiscal transparency in Turkey. As a result of several reforms, Turkey has made significant progress against the 36 principles of the IMF’s new Fiscal Transparency Code. Of the 36 principles in the Code, Turkey now meets 10 principles at the basic level, 13 principles at the good level, and 6 principles at the advanced level. Fiscal transparency practices are strongest in the area of fiscal reporting. Moreover, in 5 of the areas where Turkey’s transparency practices do not currently meet basic practice, this could be readily addressed by publishing data that are already collected for internal management purposes.

Book Synopsis Building from the Rubble by : Sachikonye, Lloyd
Download or read book Building from the Rubble written by Sachikonye, Lloyd and published by Weaver Press. This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building from the Rubble is the latest volume to trace the history of Zimbabwe’s labour movement, following Keep on Knocking (1997) and Striking Back (2001). Even though it focuses on the period between 2000-2017, the analysis reviews the changes in trade unionism throughout the post-colonial era. For much of this period, the unions faced massive challenges, including state violence and repression, funding limitations, splits, factionalism, and problems of organising at factory level. Perhaps the greatest challenge was the massive structural change in the economy. Deindustrialisation and the informalisation of work decimated the potential membership of the unions and redefined the trajectory of the movement. The growing precarity of work and the loss of formal employment placed the future of trade unions in great jeopardy. Notwithstanding these challenges, the importance of the labour movement continued to resonate with workers. The editors conclude that the unions needs to reconnect with their social base at the workplace, and rebuild structures and alliances in the informal economy, the rural sector, and with residents’ associations and social media movements. ‘This’ they write ‘is a critical post-Mugabe agenda that should be seized by the labour movement at all levels, from shop-floor to district, regional and national spaces.
Book Synopsis Seeking Urban Transformation by : Muchadenyika, Davison
Download or read book Seeking Urban Transformation written by Muchadenyika, Davison and published by Weaver Press. This book was released on 2020-02-16 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeking Urban Transformation. Alternative Urban Futures in Zimbabwe tells the stories of ordinary people’s struggles to remake urban centres. It interrogates and highlights the principle conditions in which urban transformation takes place. The main catalysts of the transformation are social movements and planning institutions. Social movements pool resources and skills, acquire land, install infrastructure and build houses. Planning institutions change policies, regulations and traditions to embrace and support a new form of urban development driven by grassroots movements. Besides providing a comprehensive analysis of planning and housing in Zimbabwe, there is a specific focus on three urban centres of Harare, Chitungwiza and Epworth. In metropolitan Harare, the books examines new housing and infrastructure series to the predominantly urban poor population; vital roles played by the urban poor in urban development and the adoption by planning institutions of grassroots-centered, urban-planning approaches. The book draws from three case studies and in-depth interviews from diverse urban shapers i.e. representatives and members of social movements, urban planners, engineers, surveyors, policy makers, politicians, civil society workers and students to generate a varied selection of insights and experiences. Based on the Zimbabwean experience, the book illustrates how actions and power of ordinary people contributes to the transformation of African cities.
Book Synopsis Zimbabwe by : International Monetary Fund. African Dept.
Download or read book Zimbabwe written by International Monetary Fund. African Dept. and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This staff report for Zimbabwe highlights the key macroeconomic challenges of taking steps to improve fiscal and external sustainability and increase financial sector stability. Zimbabwe has made good progress in restoring macroeconomic stability since the end of hyperinflation in 2009, but the economic rebound is waning, and key challenges need to be tackled. Strong policies are needed to sustain the economic recovery, restore fiscal and external sustainability, and increase financial stability. This would place the economy on a long-term, sustained inclusive growth path. Implementation of indigenization and empowerment policies according to transparent rules, with due respect to property rights, remains essential to build investor confidence and attract needed foreign direct investment.
