Essama-Nssah... [et al.]. 330 $a"Africa at a Turning Point? is a collection of essays that analyzes three interrelated aspects of Africa's recent revival. The first set of essays examines Africa's recent growth in the context of its history of growth accelerations and collapses. It seeks to answer such questions as. Is Africa at a turning point? Are the economic fundamentals finally pointing toward more sustainable growth? The second set of essays looks at donor flows, which play a large role in Africa's growth. These essays focus on such issues as the management and delivery of increased aid, and the history and volatility of donor flows to Africa. The third set of essays considers the recent impact of one persistent threat to sustained growth in Africa: commodity price shocks, particularly those resulting from fluctuations in oil prices." -- Book jacket. 410 0$aAfrica development essays. 606 $aEconomic forecasting$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 606 $aEconomic stabilization$zAfrica, Sub-Saharan 607 $aAfrica, Sub-Saharan$xEconomic policy$vStatistics 607 $aAfrica, Sub-Saharan$xEconomic conditions$y21st century$vStatistics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEconomic forecasting 615 0$aEconomic stabilization 676 $a330.967 701 $aGo$b Delfin S$0876746 701 $aPage$b John M.$f1949-$0127704 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454019103321 996 $aAfrica at a turning point$91957644 997 $aUNINA
