The book deals with five issues that have not been covered adequately in scientific debates: first, policies are essential to promote value chains and increase their impact on development; second, value chains are diverse, and the variance between them has major economic and political implications; third, regional value chains appear to constitute a viable alternative to global ones (or, at least, are complementary to them), promising better developmental outcomes for the Global South; fourth, political and socio-economic factors are important considerations for a complete assessment of value chains; fifth, cities and city regions are also crucial objects of study in seeking to achieve a comprehensive assessment of value chains. 410 0$aAdvances in African Economic, Social and Political Development,$x2198-7270 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aEconomic geography 606 $aAfrica$xEconomic conditions 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aDevelopment Economics 606 $aRegional and Spatial Economics 606 $aEconomic Geography 606 $aAfrican Economics 606 $aInternational Economics 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 0$aEconomic geography. 615 0$aAfrica$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 14$aDevelopment Economics. 615 24$aRegional and Spatial Economics. 615 24$aEconomic Geography. 615 24$aAfrican Economics. 615 24$aInternational Economics. 676 $a330.967 676 $a338.96 700 $aScholvin$b Sören$01218811 702 $aBlack$b Anthony 702 $aRevilla Diez$b Javier 702 $aTurok$b Ivan 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337674103321 996 $aValue Chains in Sub-Saharan Africa$92818507 997 $aUNINA
