Summary: A solid explanation for Africa's economic failure
Comment: Sandbrook looks at the disappointments of independence, the reasons for the failure of capitalism, colonial roots of contemporary problems, class and tribal issues, the phenomenon of personal rule and neo-patrimonialism, and how citizens survive under disfunctional governments. The book is well written, easy to read, and offers some thoughts on why Africa didn't do better after independence.
