Asian Lessons in Sustainable Development

In: Can South and Southern Africa become Globally Competitive Economies?

Abstract

The sharp contrast in recent decades between the accelerated growth of economies in East and South-East Asia and the apparent economic retrogression in much of sub-Saharan Africa has drawn much analytical and policy-making attention. Although it is important to understand why this wide disparity has occurred, the more pertinent question may be: are there any lessons from the Asian experience which may prove relevant for African policy-makers as they seek to promote development and to avoid marginalisation?
