Africa's liberation generation / Rotberg, Robert I   Journal Article
Rotberg, Robert I Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Today's African political class is much more diverse in character and aspiration than the one that overcame colonial rule and inaugurated independent governments. Sons of early liberation leaders now jostle for power in a few countries (Chad, Kenya), descendants of successful autocrats perpetuate family rule in others (Gabon), several long-serving hegemons remain in control after decades in office (as in Cameroon, Djibouti, Rwanda and Uganda), a clutch of kleptocrats continue to defraud citizens (as in Equatorial Guinea and Zimbabwe), upstart soldiers oust elected placeholders (Burkina Faso, Guinea, Mali), and here and there democratic stalwarts (Botswana, Ghana, Malawi, Senegal, South Africa, Zambia) are delivering authentic, uplifting, leadership to their followers.

Mobile phones: uplifting weak and failed states / Rotberg, Robert I; Aker, Jenny C   Journal Article
Rotberg, Robert I Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2013.
Summary/Abstract Mobile telephones are revolutionizing politics and driving political change throughout the developing world. Nothing is so powerful, so transformative. Mobile telephone technology has already changed how people in the developing world cope with their political, economic, and social circumstances. Now, through its ability interactively to transmit verbal and visual (photos or video) information by voice and/or text messaging, mobile telephone technology is poised dramatically to improve human outcomes and life choices for many millions across the globe's weak and failed states. No other recently-introduced technology has been so widely embraced or has so much potential to alter rural and urban outcomes for the better in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and elsewhere.

Summary/Abstract What next? Following another marred election, what is to become of Zimbabwe? With alleged assistance rendous inflation by banning the Zimbabwe dollar as legal from Israel and China, President Mugabe was re-anointed president after a July election for another five-year term. He has been misruling Zimbabwe with an increasingly iron fist since 1980, governing since 1999 over a country with ever-diminishing GDP, many years of Weimar-like inflation, and deteriorating medical and educational outcomes. But Mugabe will be 90 in February. How long will he live? Who can succeed him?
