Tesis doctoral de David Suze Manda
Africa, being the sole continent that is still draining behind all the other continents, has been a place where different strategies and theories of development were applied or tried. The apparent failure of moving ahead brings to critical minds a sense of questioning whether it is time to rethink these strategies. Knowing that africa is a continent with various countries, with wide-ranging challenges, with different needs, with numerous potentials ranging from its abundant natural resources to the untapped human resources, it has been my quest to understand this complex continent and to give opportunity to the reader a grasp of whole array of possibilities in rethinking strategies of development for this continent. This entails broadening the development discourse and practices from economic approaches to all other areas such as human development, cultural situations, and sustainable development. It also involves blending scholarly works with local creative solutions. From the wide range of examples in the dissertation, from all corners of the earth, one will discover how it presents a holistic understanding of development discourse and practice. This is where theories and local realities come together as an alternative contribution to the development field.
