'This is a desperately needed book. It not only surveys the field
of African economic history at the level of undergraduate students,
but provides several fresh perspectives, drawing on insights from
the latest research on the evolution of African societies and their
economic prosperity. This valuable source of teaching material will
be the premier text on African economic history for at least the
next decade.' -Johan Fourie, Stellenbosch University, South Africa
This upper level textbook offers a historical understanding of
sub-Saharan Africa. By looking at the economic history of the
African region from before the arrival of European territorial
control all the way through to Africa's integration in the current
era of globalisation, readers can understand the development paths
for African countries today. Organisation of production, social
structures, trade, and governance are key factors in the discussion
about African success stories and failures. Suitable reading for
upper level undergraduates, MSc and postgraduate students, in
addition to policy makers and development practitioners looking for
a comprehensive overview of Africa from an economic and social
perspective. Hillbom and Green also provide a starting point for
the study of African economic history for those who would like to
continue their own research in this area.
