Overview
Of the 54African states, only South Africa is categorised by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) amongst industrialised countries. The economic activities in Africa are still dominated by the production and trade of agricultural and mineral commodities. This situation is in spite of the longstanding Africa--European Union (EU) co-operation, which intends, among other things, to support Africaās industrialisation endeavours.
Imperatively,Ā aĀ long road to substantive levels of industrialisation still lies ahead of most African countries. This raises the question as to what role the international community could and should play in the twenty-first century to provide theĀ support needed to expedite Africaās industrial transformation.
This book argues that to supplement the initiatives of each African country, international partnerships, of both a āNorthāSouthā and āSouthāSouthā nature, will serve better purposes if they are leveraged to develop productive capacities in African economies. In order to enable the African countries to leverage their traditional partnership with the EU for industrialisation, a paradigm shift is obligatory. A feasible model should emulate the Japanese-led āflying geeseā model and the Chinese-led ābamboo capitalismā model.
