Description

This book examines the influence of prevailing colonial heritage in Africa on its socio-economic development. Colonisation of Africa and resulting agreements have shaped economic, political, educational, and health landscapes that have, in turn, affected continental economic development. In revisiting the question of independence from a comprehensive and transdisciplinary perspective, this book provides insight into various aspects of economic development in Africa. The book highlights areas of caution, identifies challenges and proposes recommendations relating to development from the current constrained post-colonial framework while exploring topics such as cross-border conflict, inherited colonial governance models, foreign aid, external debt, international trade, and foreign education. This book will be of special interest to students and scholars interested in African history, development studies, international relations, and economics. This book is also relevant to development professionals and policymakers, especially those with expertise in African development.
