Under chapter headings such as 'Sources of Africa's cultural
fragility', 'Thinking differently about African institutions', and
'Liberating human capital', Hlumelo Biko shows how, twenty years
in, this century could yet become Africa's century, as many believe
and some hope. Africa Reimagined is a thoughtful analysis of
Africa's past, present and future, a sobering assessment of where
it stands today, and where it needs to go, at once unnervingly
candid and inspiring. Imagine if in the year 2040, forty of
Africa's fifty-five nations have chosen to join together in a
Pan-African government structure modelled on Swiss decentralised
federalism. A merger between Ethiopian Airways, Air Mauritius, Air
Kenya, Nigerian carrier Air Peace and South African Airways has
transformed air travel. Africa is now home to the world's largest
mining company in the form of a rejuvenated Anglo American, the
company having returned to its African home base powered by a
massive investment from Africa's new sovereign wealth fund. Africa
rolls out the world's largest solar plants in the Sahara and
Kalahari deserts. These projects are underwritten by a new
insurance network based in Mauritius and modelled on Lloyd's of
London. Rural employment has risen thanks to a focus on subsistence
farmers, who have a shared service model that allows them
world-class access to price-sensitive information, equipment
financing, reasonably priced input costs and training techniques. A
pipedream? Hlumelo Biko says no.
