The book begins with a review of the existing literature on the links between governance and structural transformation and the success or otherwise of various sub regions in achieving structural transformation. It continues with a range of contributors addressing original empirical research on the relationships between different approaches to institutions and trade and industrial policies and structural transformation in Africa. The book makes recommendations for a new approach to governance in Africa that can deliver the structural transformation that the continent needs for Africans to enjoy shared prosperity, poverty reduction and development. 606 $aAfrica$xEconomic conditions 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aDevelopment economics 606 $aAfrican Economics 606 $aEconomic Policy 606 $aEconomic Growth 606 $aDevelopment Economics 615 0$aAfrica$xEconomic conditions. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aDevelopment economics. 615 14$aAfrican Economics. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aEconomic Growth. 615 24$aDevelopment Economics. 676 $a330.0096 676 $a338.96 702 $aElhiraika$b Adam B.$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aIbrahim$b Gamal$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aDavis$b William$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337678203321 996 $aGovernance for Structural Transformation in Africa$92253321 997 $aUNINA
