About this book

This book presents an original and critical overview of Africa's diverse political economies which takes into account contemporary crises, current analyses, historical insights, and projected problems. In addition to treating new data, it proposes a novel framework for analysis which includes class coalitions as well as contradictions and emphasizes division as well as co-operation within the bourgeoisie and proletariat.
