Overview
Enthusiastically embraced by African presidents, G7 leaders, and the UN General Assembly alike, the New Partnership for Africa's Development has been advanced as the vehicle that will vitalize the continent's economies. Ian Taylor critically explores just what Nepad is, and what potential it has - or lacks - for promoting African development.Synopsis
Taylor (international relations, U. of St. Andrews, Scotland; and political science, U. of Stelenbosch, South Africa) evaluates the prospects that the New Partnership for Africa's Development, Nepad, can accomplish its supporters' claims that it will promote democracy, stability, good governance, human rights, and economic development on the continent. He places it in historical, political, and economic context and considers its action in such matters as the Zimbabwe debacle and gender and HIV/AIDS. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
