This book is the product of research undertaken at the African
Development Bank (AfDB) on the lessons that the continent of Africa
can draw from the role of the state in Asia's rapid economic
development in the last 50 years. The book applies a cross-national
comparative framework to analyse Africa's performance drawing
broadly on the developmental states of Asia (i.e. Japan, China,
India, Vietnam, etc.) with focus on South Korea. The book argues
that for Africa to replicate Asia's developmental success, it may
require more than just tweaking the public sector machinery.
Dedicated institutions and a citizenry capable of demanding
accountability from governments must become key ingredients of the
development strategy. The book also provides insight into the
learning experiences of Asia, in addressing key national policy
challenges i.e. land reform and quality of public administration at
the federal and local levels, enhancing technical skills, boosting
capabilities for sciences, engineering and mathematics, and
industrialization.
