It provides a comparative study between Asian agricultural development during the Green Revolution in food production and the current problematic agricultural situation in sub-Saharan Africa. Case studies of eight African and eight Asian countries (focusing on the early part of the Green Revolution) were carried out. Based on these studies the book presents a causal and explanatory model of Asian green revolutions and discusses why it has occurred 606 $aAgriculture$zAsia 606 $aGreen Revolution$zAsia 606 $aFood supply$zAfrica 615 0$aAgriculture 615 0$aGreen Revolution 615 0$aFood supply 676 $a630/.96 701 $aDjurfeldt$b Go?ran$f1945-$0982019 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783575003321 996 $aThe African food crisis$93769623 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02920nam 2200793Ia 450 001 9910955403703321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9780674268302 010 $a067426830X 010 $a9780674058972 010 $a0674058976 024 7 $a10.4159/9780674058972 035 $a(CKB)2560000000054048 035 $a(EBL)3300877 035 $a(OCoLC)680017746 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000416832 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11319943 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000416832 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10436910 035 $a(PQKB)11399899 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3300877 035 $a(DE-B1597)457799 035 $a(OCoLC)1013944860 035 $a(OCoLC)1029812308 035 $a(OCoLC)1032678417 035 $a(OCoLC)1037982068 035 $a(OCoLC)1041983486 035 $a(OCoLC)1046614587 035 $a(OCoLC)1046996576 035 $a(OCoLC)979969668 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780674058972 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3300877 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10428839 035 $a(Perlego)1147938 035 $a(EXLCZ)992560000000054048 100 $a20100624d2010 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe end of arrogance $eAmerica in the global competition of ideas /$fSteven Weber and Bruce W.
