Africa's rapid population growth and urbanisation has made its
socioeconomic development a global priority. But as China ramps up
its assistance in bridging Africa's basic infrastructure gap to the
detriment of institutions building, warnings of a debt trap have
followed. Building upon an extensive body of evidence, the editors
argue that developing institutions and infrastructure are two
equally desirable but organisationally incompatible objectives. In
conceptualising this duality by design, a new theoretical framework
proposes better understanding of the differing approaches to
development espoused by traditional agencies, such as the World
Bank, and emergent Chinese agencies. This new framing moves the
debate away from the fruitless search for a 'superior' form of
organising, and instead suggests looking for complementarities in
competing forms of organising for development. For students and
researchers in international business, strategic and public
management, and complex systems, as well as practitioners in
international development and business in emergent markets.
