Zambia is a landlocked mineral dependent country in Southern Africa
whose history is intimately entwined with the copper mining
industry. Having gained Independence from Britain in 1964 at the
height of a copper boom, the country experienced a slow and painful
economic decline over the next quarter century. However, following
a traumatic and protracted process of economic adjustment through
the 1990s and early 2000s, Zambia's economic potential is now
better than it has been at any time since Independence. This book,
which contains a set of rigorous but accessible essays by a range
of Zambian and international scholars, seeks to examine the
challenges and opportunities that currently face Zambian
policymakers as they seek to harness the country's valuable natural
assets to broad-based and sustainable economic growth over the
coming decades. Written in a non-technical manner by leading
scholars in the field, the chapters address key challenges in the
areas of natural resource management, agriculture, trade,
employment and migration, education, finance, and investment. This
is the second volume in the Africa: Policies for Prosperity series
following on from the successful first volume on Kenya.
