Africa Rising or A Continent Under Conquest?

The book tries to provide answers and perspectives on these and other questions: Who is benefitting from Africa's growth prosperity narrative? Are Africans at last taking matters into their own hands or is this just another Scramble for Africa? Is Africa now run by post structural adjustment oligarchs? How can Africa compete with the rest of the world? Who are the players on the continent? What do they want? What does this mean for the future of Africa, for the future of Africans? What is the role of colonial powers in Africa's continued resource plunder? Are Africans benefitting from the Chinese engagements in Africa?
