The Elusive African Renaissance - Essays on Today's Critical Development Issues (Paperback)

The African Continent is faced with several major development challenges that have, among other things, adversely affected the political and material well-being of the majority of the citizens of most of the constituent states. Against this background, this book seeks to address some of the continent's frontier development issues-democracy, leadership, the economy, poverty alleviation through microfinance schemes, food security, education, health, and political instability. The book's overarching contribution to both the scholarly literature and policy-making is twofold. First, the book engages in a rigorous analysis of each of the major development issues. Second, it offers alternative prescriptions for addressing these challenges, in contradistinction to the dominant neoliberal solutions.
