Africa's Business Revolution
Author: Acha Leke
Publisher: Harvard Business Press
ISBN: 1633694410
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
The Definitive Guide to Doing Business in Africa For global and Africa-based companies looking to access new growth markets, Africa offers exciting opportunities to build large, profitable businesses. Its population is young, fast-growing, and increasingly urbanized--while rapid technology adoption makes the continent a fertile arena for innovation. But Africa's business environment remains poorly understood; it's known to many executives in the West only by its reputation for complexity, conflict, and corruption. Africa's Business Revolution provides the inside story on business in Africa and its future growth prospects and helps executives understand and seize the opportunities for building profitable, sustainable enterprises. From senior leaders in McKinsey's African offices and a leading executive on the continent, this book draws on in-depth proprietary research by the McKinsey Global Institute as well as McKinsey's extensive experience advising corporate and government leaders across Africa. Brimming with company case studies and exclusive interviews with some of Africa's most prominent executives, this book comes to life with the vibrant stories of those who have navigated the many twists and turns on the road to building successful businesses on the continent. Combining an unrivalled fact base with expert advice on shaping and executing an Africa growth strategy, this book is required reading for global business executives looking to expand their existing operations in Africa--and for those seeking a road map to access this vast, untapped market for the first time.

Fanon
Author: L. Adele Jinadu
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 131784856X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 125
Book Description
First published in 1986. Fanon: In Search of the African Revolution is different from other books on Fanon in that it approaches him as both a political philosopher and political sociologist of the African experience. It suggests that Fanon's political writings be viewed in terms of his concern with how relations are structured in colonial and post-colonial Africa and the implications of those structural arrangements for political conflict in Africa. Fanon's attempt to explain the pathologies and contradictions of African politics in terms of class and the historical processes that influence and constrain class political behavior is provocative and insightful. But the moral dimension that informs Fanon's theoretical perspectives is no less important, if only because it attests to his strong advocacy of the need for revolutionary change as a condition for the restructuring of African political systems.

Decolonial Marxism
Author: Walter Rodney
Publisher: Verso Books
ISBN: 1839764139
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
Early in life, Walter Rodney became a major revolutionary figure in a dizzying range of locales that traversed the breadth of the Black diaspora: in North America and Europe, in the Caribbean and on the African continent. He was not only a witness of a Pan-African and socialist internationalism; in his efforts to build mass organizations, catalyze rebellious ferment, and theorize an anti-colonial path to self-emancipation, he can be counted among its prime authors. Decolonial Marxism records such a life by collecting previously unbound essays written during the world-turning days of Black revolution. In drawing together pages where he elaborates on the nexus of race and class, offers his reflections on radical pedagogy, outlines programs for newly independent nation-states, considers the challenges of anti-colonial historiography, and produces balance sheets for a dozen wars for national liberation, this volume captures something of the range and power of Rodney's output. But it also demonstrates the unbending consistency that unites his life and work: the ongoing reinvention of living conception of Marxism, and a respect for the still untapped potential of mass self-rule.

Issues in African Revolution
Author: Chigozie Enwere
Publisher:
ISBN: 9783962031138
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
For centuries revolution in Africa has been misunderstood and given controversial conceptualization. For most scholars and policy makers, revolution cannot occur in Africa as Africa is backward and lacks the necessary political culture and values to carry out a successful revolution. Hence most revolutions in Africa are described as mere Arab Spring, uprising, terrorism or insurgence. Therefore, this book seeks to examine and conceptualize the basic issues that make up African revolution; highlighting the key pillars of African revolution: liberation, emancipation and development. Also, the book provides a comprehensive overview of revolution in the study of African politics and gives an intellectual insight into the specific principles, theories and philosophy of revolutions in Africa. We hope that the varieties of ideas discussed in this book will help to understand the dynamics of revolution in African societies.
