Content:
It is often argued that Africa’s primary commodities fuel African conflicts and impede the continent’s development. In this Whitehall Report, produced in association with the Johannesburg based Brenthurst Foundation, several leading international experts on Africa examine the relationship between African security, commodities and development. They investigate the facts behind both academic and popular misconceptions about Africa’s commodities, such as the ‘greed versus grievance’ argument and the ‘blood diamonds’ debate, the role of international actors and the implications of the rise of China and India for African security and development. For Africa, the central question is how to ensure that its prized commodities remain a force for continental good. (AUT)
