About This Item
(Johannesburg: Picador Africa, 2009) 9781770101616. 198 x 130 mm; laminated pictorial wrappers; pp. xiv + 196; some tables and graphs. Wrappers very slightly curled; occasional fox spot. Very good condition. "Of an estimated 1 billion people in the world who are trapped in a cycle of grinding poverty and despair, a disproportionate number live in sub-Saharan Africa. In this innovative and challenging account, Moeletsi Mbeki analyses the plight of Africa and concludes that the fault lies not with the mass of its people but with its rulers - the political elites who contrive to keep their fellow citizens poor while enriching themselves." .
