Description: Governance, security, and development are three critical components of a dialectical nexus that is crucial for understanding the trajectory of any country, region, or, in the case of Africa, continent. The colonial past and ensuing neocolonial and meta-colonial present have made these critical components particularly challenging for Africa. For this reason, this book offers an in-depth, interdisciplinary analysis of these critical areas. Using case studies from across the continent, Mohamed Saliou Camara, Alem Hailu, and Sabella O. Abidde argue that Africa needs to decolonize the terms of reference guiding nation-building, statecraft, and national development agenda in ways that will facilitate viable systems of governance and security and the promotion of genuine development. "This novel collection attempts to move past competition between China and the United States and recenter Africa in debates surrounding its governance, security, and development. Many of these chapters offer original takes on key debates within an African studies space. Readers hoping to be introduced to these arguments will find this text valuable." —Tom McNamara, La Trobe University (Hardcover) New Condition!!
