Description
Leaving aside human and social capital for a future volume, the book should be viewed as a crucial first step in developing indicators for total wealth in the countries covered by the case studies, which include Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Mozambique and South Africa.
These case studies experiment with implementing the SEAA in sub-Saharan nations known to suffer from the 'resource curse': their wealth in resources and commodities has allowed inflows of liquidity, yet this cash has not funded crucial developments in infrastructure or education.
What's more, resource-driven economies are highly vulnerable to commodity price mutability.
The new measures of wealth deployed here offer more hope for the future in these countries than they themselves would once have allowed for.
