In recent years Africa appears to have turned a corner economically. It is posting increased growth rates and is no longer the world's slowest growing region. Commentators are beginning to ask whether emerging from Africa is a new generation of 'lion' economies to challenge the East Asian 'tigers'? This book goes behind the headlines to examine the conditions necessary not just for growth in Africa but for a wider business and economic transformation. Contrary to neoliberal economics, it argues that governments can play an important role in this through selective interventions to correct market failures, and, controversially, that neo-patrimonial governance need not be an obstacle to improved business and economic conditions.

Introduction: growth, governance, and economic transformation in Africa 1. Developmental patrimonialism? 2. Tanzania: growth with poverty reduction 3. Ghana: a star but static performer 4. Ethiopia: rent-seekers and productive capitalists 5. Rwanda: the party leads, the market follows Conclusion: challenging the orthodoxies on business and politics in Africa
