Description

Explore the complex relationship between natural resources and urban growth in West Africa. This academic work from Routledge provides a critical analysis of the resource curse doctrine and examines international evidence regarding oil and urban development. Focused on the new oil metropolis of Sekondi-Takoradi, Ghana, the text investigates how oil prospecting, exploration, and production change property rights in the 21st century. Readers will gain insights into the historical origins of the city and the varying effects these changes have across different social classes. By studying the roles of land, labour, capital, and the state, this book offers a deep look at how local and national institutions respond to the presence of oil. It is an essential resource for those studying international real estate, economic policy, and the development of African urban centers.
