Debates regarding Africa's development remain controversial and unresolved. As part of contributing to the debate, the Thabo Mbeki African Leadership Institute has been convening colloquia, symposia and conferences on related matters. One of those endeavors focused on re-awakening and shaping Africa's future in a globalised world and this book is an outcome of that symposium. This edited volume examines the role of democratic governance, peace and security, the African political economy, regional integration, trade, land and human rights for Africa's development as well as unpacks coloniality. The book another in the Thabo Mbeki African Leadership Institute book series is an important addition in the broader field of African political economy of development. The book is of interest to researchers, academics, practitioners and policy makers who desire an in-depth understanding of Africa's development conundrum as well as possible solutions.
