内容

The now growing body of literature on industrialization on Africa has not only shown that industrial development remains weak; it has also produced a consistent list of challenges believed to be holding back industrial transformation on the continent. In the context of the enduring challenges of industrial development on the continent, some analysts have been asking whether Africa, in fact, industrialise. In this lecture, I argue that the question is not whether Africa can industrial; the question is rather, whether the triggers and enablers of an industrial revolution in Africa exist.
