An Emerging Africa in the Age of Globalisation Innovations in International Affairs Series
Auteur : Mudida Robert
Since the turn of the century, Africa has been emerging economically, politically and socially and striving to assert itself on the global stage. This book provides an interdisciplinary view of Africa?s struggle to find its unique voice and contribute to the dialogue of international affairs.
Highlighting both challenges and opportunities, the book explores the multi-faceted economic, political and social debates that surround Africa?s emergence in a complex, increasingly globalised world. The author provides holistic, complementary and policy-oriented advice to African governments and policymakers on how to cope with new interrelated realities in an age of globalisation.
This book will be of great interest to students, academics and researchers in the areas of political economy, international development, global governance, public policy and the international relations of African states. It will also appeal to African leaders, policymakers and governments who seek to increase the ability of their countries to cope with the challenges presented by a globalised world.
