This handbook fills a large gap in the current knowledge about the critical role of Africa in the changing global order. By connecting the past, present, and future in a continuum that shows the paradox of existence for over one billion people, the book underlines the centrality of the African continent to global knowledge production, the global economy, global security, and global creativity. Bringing together perspectives from top Africa scholars, it actively dispels myths of the continent as just a passive recipient of external influences, presenting instead an image of an active global agent that astutely projects soft power. Unlike previous handbooks, this book offers an eclectic mix of historical, contemporary, and interdisciplinary approaches that allow for a more holistic view of the many aspects of Africa’s relations with the world.

Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2017 in the subject Business economics - Economic Policy, grade: 73%, University of Pretoria, course: International Relations, language: English, abstract: The concept of social learning by Peter Hall has created a wide scholarship which supports the fact that a paradigm shift in a policy change could successfully occur through the promotion of knowledge and new ideas instead of a focus on power relations of the influencers of policy. This research paper operationalizes the concept of social learning in the context of the relationship of Bretton woods institutions and African countries. The paper assumes that the failure of the paradigm of neo-liberalism which was imposed by the Bretton woods institutions in their focus on institutional power relations, hegemony and hierarchy to African countries means that the African continent needs a paradigm shift in its countries’ public policy, especially in its countries’ macro-economic policies. Scholars have published their dissatisfaction with neo-liberalism as they claim that it impacted the African countries negatively and further worsened their economic crisis instead of stabilizing it. The paper proposes the application of the concept of social learning in the process of policy formulation by African countries so as to reach a paradigm shift, replacing the paradigm of neo-liberalism with an African produced paradigm.

This book analyses the impact of the Western idea of 'modernity' on development and underdevelopment in Africa. It traces the genealogy of the Western idea of modernity from European Enlightenment concepts of the universal nature of human history and development, and shows how this idea was used to justify the Western exploitation and oppression of Africa. It argues that contemporary development, theory and practice is a continuation of the Enlightenment project and that Africa can only achieve real development by rejecting Western modernity and inventing its own forms of modernity. The book is divided into four sections. The first section provides an outline of the theory of modernity in the Enlightenment project. In the second section, an attempt is made to trace the genealogy of the idea of development as modernity and how the African development process gets entangled with it. Here, its evolution is mapped through three periods: early modernity, capitalist modernity and late modernity. Zeroing in on the current era of late or hypermodernity, the book contests the idea that there is something new in globalisation and its neo-liberal development paradigm. The third section turns to the complex but pertinent question of how, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, Africa can transcend the impasse of modernity. The fourth and final section sums up the argument and points the way forward.
