Описание
While many complain that wealthy nations turn a cold shoulder to the poorest continent, Robert Calderisi exposes the startling degree to which Africas problems come from within. He reveals the shortcomings of foreign aid and debt relief, and proposes his own radical solutions. Readers will be shocked to learn that Africa has steadily lost markets by its own mismanagement, that even capitalist countries are anti-business, that African family values and fatalism are more destructive than tribalism, and that African leaders prey intentionally on Western guilt. This urgent wake-up call is aimed at those who are critical of the U.S. and other rich countries for not doing more to help. Coming from an outspoken high-level official, this is a message that will create intrigue and outrage and spark a timely debate.
