This book considers the promises and challenges of globalization
for Africa. Why have African states been perennially unable to
diversify their economies and move beyond export of primary
produce, even as Southeast Asia has made a tremendous leap into
manufacturing? What institutional impediments are in play in
African states? What reforms would mitigate the negative effects of
globalization and distribute its benefits more equitably? Covering
critical themes such as political leadership, security challenges,
the creative sector, and community life, essays in this volume
argue that the starting point for Africa's meaningful engagement
with the rest of the world must be to look inward, examine Africa's
institutions, and work towards reforms that promote inclusiveness
and stability.
