A Triple Heritage
The seventh of nine programmes written and presented by ALI A. MAZRUI
A Garden of Eden in Decay Climate, colonisation and Africa's own poor judgment, says Ali Mazrui , are the three main factors that have retarded the continent's economic advance. The result is a land which consumes what it does not produce and produces what it does not consume, a continent which swings between the twin evils of dependency and decay.
Mazrui reports on the great socialist experiment which was to have brought
Tanzania self-sufficiency; in the Ivory Coast he finds a measure of prosperity, but achieved only at the price of a continuing French embrace; he sees Nigeria, once rich with oil, plunged into the abyss of debt. Yet there are success stories. Algeria turns its oil resources to general advantage; Zimbabwe's peasant farmers are producing crops for export.
But will Africa's solutions be in time?
