E. Ike Udogu

Examining Human Rights Issues and the Democracy Project in Sub-Saharan Africa (eBook, ePUB)

A Theoretical Critique and Prospects for Progress in the Millennium

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Sub-Saharan Africa is experiencing an impressive measure of economic revivalism that is driven by both national and international forces at the beginning of the twenty-first century. That political and business leaders in the region are determined that development in this millennium will not mimic the slow pace of growth in the twentieth is a given. Undoubtedly, the rapid spread of information communications technology (ICT) and contemporary investments of China in the region's growth agenda bear this thesis out. This book, among other things, advances the theory that improving human rights practices and the democracy project-i.e. democratic consolidation in sub-Saharan Africa will create an enabling environment that is critical for stimulating the current inspiring development objectives.
