Rezension zu „African Economies and the Politics of Permanent Crisis, 1979-1999 “
'This landmark work presents a searching and persuasive political explanation of Africa's failure to achieve development despite two decades of externally imposed economic reform ... A major contribution to our understanding of Africa's political economy.' Foreign Affairs 'This is economics by someone who understands African politics. No Africanists can afford not to read it.' Commonwealth & Comparative Politics 'A well-written book is usually a persuasive book, and this book is well written. Its reasoning is more than persuasive, however: it is compelling in its gloomy conclusions, in which the failure of economic reform seems inescapable. ... Van der Walle's book is probably the best among a spate of literature that explains the African economic predicament in terms of the patrimonial nature of politics.' The Journal of Development Studies 'The book is a must-read for all those interested in understanding the African situation and how progress might be achieved in the future. ... this is an excellent study.' Development in Practice
