In recent years Africa appears to have turned a corner
economically. It is posting increased growth rates and is no longer
the world's slowest growing region. Commentators are beginning to
ask whether emerging from Africa is a new generation of 'lion'
economies to challenge the East Asian 'tigers'? This book goes
behind the headlines to examine the conditions necessary not just
for growth in Africa but for a wider business and economic
transformation. Contrary to neoliberal economics, it argues that
governments can play an important role in this through selective
interventions to correct market failures, and, controversially,
that neo-patrimonial governance need not be an obstacle to improved
business and economic conditions. Drawing on a variety of timely
case studies - including Rwanda, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Ghana -
this provocative book provides a radical new theory of the
political and institutional conditions required for pro-poor growth
in Africa.
