Join Zed Books and Patrick Bond of South Africa's Centre for Civil Society to launch
Looting Africa:
The Economics of Exploitation
Wednesday, October 18, noon - 2pm, Room 116
School of Oriental and African Studies, Thornhaugh Street, Russell Square
Contact: Angelica Baschiera, Secretary, Centre of African Studies, 020 7637 2388
Patrick Bond is Research Professor at the University of KwaZulu-Natal School of Development Studies and Director of the Centre for Civil Society in Durban. Despite the rhetoric, the people of Sub-Saharan Africa are becoming poorer. From Tony Blair's Africa Commission, the G7 finance ministers' debt relief, the Live 8 concerts, the Make Poverty History campaign and the G8 Gleneagles promises, to the United Nations 2005 summit and the Hong Kong WTO meeting, Africa's gains have been mainly limited to public relations.
The central problems remain exploitative debt and financial relationships with the North, phantom aid, unfair trade, distorted investment, capital flight and the continent's brain/skills drain. Moreover, capitalism in most African countries has witnessed the emergence of excessively powerful ruling elites. While noting their role as collaborators, this book contextualises Africa's wealth outflow within a stagnant yet financially volatile world economy.
A solid theoretical, empirical and analytical framework proving that the processes of looting the African continent, which started with the slave trade, have continued to this day. - Professor Issa Shivji, University of Dar es Salaam
Patrick's books on post-apartheid South Africa have been a beacon, and his latest is a brilliant analysis and timely expose of the rapacious forces ranged against Africans today. - John Pilger, author and film maker
