Rethinking Institutions, Processes and Development in Africa (Hardcover)

African scholarship concerning the nexus between institutions and development is still dominated by economic perspective of development despite the emergence of humanistic perspective of development. Human development is a more embracing, encompassing and comprehensive view of development than economic development and offers a better explanation of African situation than economic development. It is essential that the examine the relationships between democratic political institutions and human development. This collection examines this issue in two main sections. The first section contains chapters that focus on democratic institutions and processes in post-independence Africa. The contributors tried to examine the political institutional processes in post-colonial Africa. The section dealt with workings of various institutions like education, bureaucracy, interest groups, trade unions, and problems of enforcements in Africa. It also discussed the relevance of creative arts for political socialization as well as the role of privatization on service delivery in contemporary African societies.
