Smart Partnerships for African Development: A New Strategic Framework. Special Report

摘要

Overlapping and mutually reinforcing crises in Africa have attracted increased attention from policymakers and researchers. A major outcome of these reflections is the creation of the New Partnership for African Development (NEPAD), a comprehensive reform program sponsored by African government leaders. Richard Joseph, a senior fellow in the Jennings Randolph Program for International Peace at the United States Institute of Peace, has studied and actively participated in efforts to promote peace, democracy, and development in Africa. In this report, he proposes a strategic framework of developmental partnerships based on the realities of contemporary Africa. During a period when international financing of development is being actively re-examined, the aim of this report is to promote a wider debate of available policy.
