Transforming African Economies: Lessons from Ethiopia

By Sumit Roy

This book provides unique insight into the Ethiopian economy and the political economy challenges it faces. With a particular focus on the rise and fall of the EPRDF, it explores the ways in which African economies can overcome historical and political setbacks to induce economic growth and transformation. By examining the defining policies of the EPRDF and changes made by the PP, the ways in which African countries can generate growth, develop democracy, tackle internal conflict, and bolster regional and international relations are outlined.

This book draws from the experiences of Ethiopia to offer a pathway for African transformation. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and policymakers interested in development economics, economic policy, and the political economy of Africa.
