Long description:

This book offers a broad and multidisciplinary guide to the economic, social and development challenges facing modern Africa. It seeks out innovative solutions to Africa’s development issues that look beyond the current policy landscapes and conventional methodologies. By tracking the diverse historical, economic and social trajectories of Africa, based on academic as well as deep personal experiences across the continent, during the 21st century, the specific natures of African economies and societies are highlighted and recommendations for addressing the challenges with refreshing approaches discussed in great detail. The recommended courses for Africa's development paths in the 21st century are found within education, innovation, finance, agriculture, health, economic, political and social stability, comprehensive quantitative or general equilibrium modeling, technological development and lessons from Asian success stories.

This book will be of interest to students, researchers, and policymakers interested in development studies, in general or African economies, specifically, through deep, wide and knowledgeable insights.
