I understand the fact that the slave trade and colonisation highly affected the continent, but fact is African countries weren’t the only ones affected by that so it still puzzles me as to why African nations have failed to spring up like the Super power nations we have today
In: Economics
If there a sociological aspect? So in Africa I understood there was a strong family/tribal allegiance. So any wealth you get, you are obliged to share amongst the wider family. If you have a job, and are recruiting, you employ someone from your family. You need some work done, you get someone from your family to do it. It’s a lot like the cronyism in any political organisation, but it’s family based?
Any truth in this?
