Positioning Africa for the 21st Century James Magara

Positioning Africa for the 21st Century takes the reader through a journey of policy and decision making in Africa. It features case studies of Botswana, Malaysia, South Korea and Singapore illustrating the role leadership and think tanks played in their development. It explores the different roles think tanks can play in fostering Africa's rapid development, and advocates for a different leadership paradigm from the one that has characterized Africa in the last sixty years. This book is a clarion call for current and emerging African leaders to avoid mirroring the mistakes of the past six decades and rise to the challenge of taking Africa to its preferred future.
