Inclusive Growth in Africa analyzes the concept of inclusion within
the challenges facing Africa's rapidly growing economies, where
rising affluence for some has been accompanied almost everywhere
with rising inequality. Using a combination of political economy
analyses, sector studies and econometric models, the contributors
delve into a range of areas associated to the new realities on the
continent. Topics covered include issues of disability, corruption,
capital flight, and their implications for economic sustainability.
There is also a discussion of the impact on development of
dependence on externally determined prices for Africa's natural
resources. Other sector analyses look at agriculture and wind
power, and the innovations required to make a difference for the
poorer majority. The book comprises of a rich array of essays on
socio-economic inclusion in Africa by authors drawn from academia,
African think tanks and international organizations. It would be of
interest to scholars and students of many disciplines, including:
Economics, Sociology, Development Studies, and African Studies.
