Debates on African development continue to downplay the achievement of the continent: economic achievements are diminished and the perception of a conflict prone continent continues. Many of the policy prescriptions externally imposed on African countries have done little to transform the continent largely because they have been conceived and applied without context.
Using literature from diverse origins, this book expands our knowledge about Africa and makes practical suggestions as to how successful development in a complex, yet dynamic continent can be achieved. Widening the policy dialogue and providing alternative thinking on the key elements and full extent of opportunities and challenges towards achieving the socio-economic transformation of Africa, the book moves the debate from the rhetoric to reality.
As a considered reflection on the ‘Africa’s transformation’ narrative, it outlines the practical pathways necessary for Africa’s sustainable development, providing policy makers and researchers with tested solutions. It will be of interest to all scholars, students and policy professionals working in African development, public policy, international political economy, economic policy and politics.

This book is written as a tribute to Frederick Nixson’s extensive work on industrial development in the Global South, while seeking to actively engage with the latest arguments concerning development economics, together with changes in manufacturing and industrial policy that continue to shape the role of the Global South in the international economy, the impact of the increased concentration of global multinational corporations in that space, along with the rise of new financing tools and debt traps. The chapters pay homage to Fred’s broad view of the international development process and reflect his breadth of perception both theoretically and geographically. The book targets both the scholarly and policymaking audience.

This handbook presents a wide-ranging and thorough overview of research topics and policy considerations in the field of development finance. The handbook brings together international contributions from both practitioners and academics to provide global, regional and national perspectives.
Chapters are devoted to global contexts for development finance (including the Sustainable Development Goals framework); development financial planning in country-specific settings; domestic resource mobilization for economic development; external sources of finance including aid, foreign direct investment, remittances and illicit financial flows; innovative methods in development finance such as socially-responsible investment and faith-based finance; and mechanisms for blending public and private funding sources to support and sustain large infrastructure. The evolving area of climate finance, disaster risk reduction schemes, the role of FinTech in financial development, and rural credit markets are also discussed. The handbook also offers tools for the measurement of development finance impact on variables such as financial inclusion, sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction.
Fully situated in the context of the international monetary system and recent global regulatory changes, as well as current debates concerning sustainable development, this handbook will act as an authoritative reference for students, researchers, and policy makers in this rapidly growing field.
