The Political Economy of Development : An African Perspective

The Association of African Universities and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa jointly sponsored this study in two volumes. The diagnoses and proposals emanate from a distinctively African perspective, and the work aims to fill a gap in the literature available on Africa's own views and analysis on unfolding issues concerning the continent's development. Volume two focuses on the strategies and policies of African development e.g. food self-sufficiency, the challenges of collective self-reliant development, regional economic cooperation and integration, rural transformation in Africa and agricultural development.
