Chapter Chapter 1 in Emerging Issues in Contemporary African Economies, 2024, pp 1-37 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Prior to the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic in the fall of 2019, the media and commentators were abuzz with narratives about how Africa had finally turned a corner from years of lackluster economic performance. They seemed to be fascinated by a “new Africa” that was outperforming much of the rest of the world and threatening the economic hegemony of emerging markets.
