Madagascar's long-term trajectory is unique: not only has GDP per
capita been trending downward since 1960 (the puzzle), but every
time the country has set out on the path of growth, it has been
stopped in its tracks by a socio-political crisis that has
shattered the hopes it raised (the paradox). No satisfactory
explanation of this failure has been provided so far. This book
elaborates a model of intelligibility of Madagascar's downfall,
based on an integrated political economy approach as well as
mobilizing the most recent development theories. Combining a review
of historical literature with original and sometimes unique
statistical surveys, it proposes a general interpretative framework
for the workings of Malagasy society. Richly documented and
accessible, Puzzle and Paradox allows readers to understand
Madagascar's sociopolitical history while more broadly offering an
opportunity to grasp the different dimensions of development in the
Global South.
