disciplinary standpoint, this book challenges the
teleologica!
and unidirectional notions of development embodied in the idea of
modernisation or progress and offers a critique of the tendency to consider Africa as a
basket case, which often gives the Western self an undeserving privilege and superiority
over the African other . Mostly authored by emerging African scholars, this 16-chapter
volume addresses the historical application of development projects in Africa and their
modern impact in economic, political, cultural, social, and
infrastructural
contexts,
among others.
The book, therefore, unearths development dynamics in
spécifie
African countries,
examines the continent s external relations, rethinks predominant ideas on development,
and engages in critical examination of concepts and practices that have maintained
hegemonic positions in the discussions on Africa s development. Its uniqueness lies in
the ability to bring these several voices and themes together into a concise conception of
both the challenges and possibilities of Africa s sustainable development. The book
targets both the academic and policy worlds in Africa and around the world, as well as
ordinary members of the public who seek to broaden their theoretical and empirical
understanding on the changing dynamics on the African continent.
Africa Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow is an excellent piece of work. The scholarship, or
more practically, the intersecting rhetoricals of African development and governance
systems, have been expansively deployed in the past
50
or so years, but mostly without
much positive impact on either the lives of people or upon the design of the prevailing
public institutions in the continent. More than any work I am familiar with, this reader
represents a timely and topically important intervention that engages the highly needed
conceptual and praxical reconstructions which should be applied to the new and urgent
ways we need to analyze and critique the historical, cultural and policy platforms and
possibilities of African development and underdevelopment. This book should greatly
benefit students of Africa from diverse disciplines and research interests, and will surely
expand the
epistemic
boundaries of the debates now and into the future.
