Globalization And Autocentricity

African economies are the most dependent and the most marginalized within the global system. The prevailing policies that are designed to overcome the African crisis and to reverse their marginalization by integrating African economies more closely with the global economy through openness, have generally exacerbated their problems by deepening their internal fragmentation. This book is an attempt to contribute to the ongoing effort to develop more appropriate alternative strategies. It proposes an ingenious balance between autocentric and globalist approaches to transcend the African paradox.
