Can we talk about the development model in Africa?

At first glance the title of the book may seem like a polemic. Far from it. Reflecting on development and well-being seems urgent and mobilising here and now. It has become a focus of interest in other parts of the world. We have focused this reflection on Africa tracing its dark and obscure history before proposing possible solutions to ensure that the better future to which the sons and daughters of the African continent aspire becomes a reality. Admittedly the tendency of some is to withdraw behind a past to whine all day long to turn their backs on the light and to seek to establish responsibilities. This book is intended to raise awareness so that young people intellectuals and readers of all persuasions understand that the future of African countries is not in decline. The aim is to show that they have assets to bring to bear so that people who are sinking into uncertainty and fear about the future can join in the dynamic of active hope.
