The Spirits of Neoliberal Reforms and Everyday Politics of the State in Africa
ISBN: 9782359260670 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Composed of articles first published in the journal Politique africaine, this book proposes an original interpretation of neoliberalism in Africa. Instead of seeing neoliberal reforms as intrinsically destructive of the post-colonial state, the authors, who include some of Africa's best-known social scientists, focus on the resilience and adaptability of African state structures, economic systems, and social survival mechanisms. They examine the diversity of responses to neoliberalism in what the editors call the "everyday politics of the state." In essays that range from diverse theoretical...

The U.S.-Africa Leadership Summit Seven Months Later: Progress and Setbacks
ISBN: 9781540803306 / Angielski / Miękka / 50 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There seems to be a perpetual focus from the outside on foreign assistance to Africa, whether in helping to stop the spread of AIDS or Ebola, or providing humanitarian assistance to those suffering from drought, or to aid those who have been displaced due to a crisis. Much of this assistance is obviously critical. However, these countries want to develop their own economies and reach a point where they are not so dependent on foreign aid. Africa is home to 6 of the 10 fastest-growing economies in the world. Real incomes across the continent have increased by 30 percent over the past 10 years....

Ethnic Politics and State Power in Africa: The Logic of the Coup-Civil War Trap
ISBN: 9781316628218 / Angielski / Miękka / 414 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Why are some African countries trapped in vicious cycles of ethnic exclusion and civil war, while others experience relative peace? In this groundbreaking book, Philip Roessler addresses this question. Roessler models Africa's weak, ethnically-divided states as confronting rulers with a coup-civil war trap - sharing power with ethnic rivals is necessary to underwrite societal peace and prevent civil war, but increases rivals' capabilities to seize sovereign power in a coup d'etat. How rulers respond to this strategic trade-off is shown to be a function of their country's ethnic geography and...

Following its independence in 2011, three years of civil war have left South Sudan on the cusp of full-scale genocide, with its sovereignty discredited by warring elites, asserts a new Council Special Report, Ending South Sudan's Civil War.

In 1993, the citizens of Eritrea, then a province of Ethiopia, voted to become an independent nation.

Unfortunately, their hopes would soon be dashed. Elections have been repeatedly postponed. Opposition political parties are no longer able to organize. The initial hopes for democracy and good government in Eritrea were also held by the international community. In March 1997, in a report by the U.S. Agency for International Development...

This book is an in-depth and bold dialogue with several constituencies about the necessity of finding alternative pathways to solve the monumental problems facing the nations of Sub-Saharan Africa. It asserts that the most formidable barriers to progress in Sub-Saharan Africa are Sub-Saharan Africans, particularly the leaders. Thus, for these nations to escape from destitution, change must originate from within. African leaders are reminded that life anchored on the pursuit of money, material wealth, and power by any means, is hollow, empty, and meaningless. The future leaders of Sub-Saharan...
