Africa in the New Millennium: Challenges and Prospects
Edited by Eddy Maloka and Elizabeth le Roux

This century has been dubbed Africa's century. But it is undeniable that the
continent still faces many challenges, while prospects for growth and change
are opening up at an increasing rate. What will Africa make of these new
challenges and prospects?
In this volume, a cross-section of researchers debate these issues, focusing
on economic issues in a globalising world, and on the associated new
information and education challenges. The overall mood is optimistic, but
the contributors take care to paint a realistic picture of what the
continent and its peoples can achieve in the coming years.
