African Economic Development

In a textbook on economic development in Africa, economists cover Africa''s characteristics and development challenges; critical issues; sector analysis; and development challenges, policies, and strategies. The topics include the definition and measurement of growth and development, the growth-poverty-inequality nexus: toward a mutually inclusive relationship in Africa, the economics of religious conversion in sub-Saharan Africa, agricultural transformation and Africa''s economic development, and sub-Saharan Africa''s development experience and policy practice from 1960 to 2018. In a sweeping survey of African economies, leading scholars offer the latest research into the biggest current influences on African growth and development, taking account of relevant institutional contexts as well as significant or unique problems that have slowed Africa’s progress.
