The current socio-economic situation in Africa as a continent
is precarious. The continent faces multiple crises that include
those of religion, politics, and economics. Each crisis is
significant in its own right and together they are mutually
reinforcing. One begins to wonder if the leaders have the will
and/or the means to put the continent on a growth trajectory and
once and for all address the wide spectrum of inextricably linked
development issues. While the significance of politics on religion,
or vice versa is recognized, what is more crucial is the impact of
politics on economy, and vice versa. This book examines the
direction of causality and finds that political instability
perpetuates underdevelopment among other things. It is also
interesting to discover that the deleterious effect of political
instability is different across sectors. The reader will also
observe that a few countries may have benefited from some degree of
instability.
