Description: Rethinking and Unthinking Development by Busani Mpofu, Sabelo J. Ndlovu-Gatsheni Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Development has remained elusive in Africa. Through theoretical contributions and case studies focusing on Southern Africas former white settler states, South Africa and Zimbabwe, this volume responds to the current need to rethink (and unthink) development in the region. The authors explore how Africa can adapt Western development models suited to its political, economic, social and cultural circumstances, while rejecting development practices and discourses based on exploitative capitalist and colonial tendencies. Beyond the legacies of colonialism, the volume also explores other factors impacting development, including regional politics, corruption, poor policies on empowerment and indigenization, and socio-economic and cultural barriers. Author Biography Busani Mpofu is Associate Professor in the Development Studies Department, University of South Africa. He researches on Third world urbanisation and the history of African cities, urban poverty, inclusive development, development discourse and theory.
