The book has two parts: The first part describes Africa’s burdens, without the defensive shield that often blinds Africans to reflective insights. The second part offers practical solutions to address the enormous deficits in development that persist throughout black Africa. Devising and implementing lasting solutions that can lighten and eventually lift black Africa’s many burdens is a challenging prospect. But Africans must reverse the crippling effect of their burdens and negative influences, and lead the way to transform their lives.

This book uses Nigeria’s Afri-capitalist and South Africa’s Ubuntu Business models as case studies that reconcile the tension between Africa Rising and Pan African economics, presenting their convergence as Africa’s viable Third Way route to global development. In presenting Afri-capitalism and Ubuntu Business as national, business sector manifestations of a “new” Pan Africanism, the author explores Africa’s “culturalist” path in engaging the international political economy. This is an African customized engagement that parallels the alternative models of China’s “market-socialism” and Latin America’s “21st C Socialism”. All present alternatives to realist, liberal, and structuralist standpoints, inclining instead toward constructivist political economies derived from the perspectives and subject conditions of African economic histories, socio-cultures, alternative modernities, and agent-led initiatives.

Africa’s Media Image in the 21st Century is the first book in over twenty years to examine the international media’s coverage of sub-Saharan Africa. It brings together leading researchers and prominent journalists to explore representation of the continent, and the production of that image, especially by international news media. The book highlights factors that have transformed the global media system, changing whose perspectives are told and the forms of media that empower new voices. Case studies consider questions such as: how has new media changed whose views are represented? Does Chinese or diaspora media offer alternative perspectives for viewing the continent? How do foreign correspondents interact with their audiences in a social media age? What is the contemporary role of charity groups and PR firms in shaping news content? They also examine how recent high profile events and issues been covered by the international media, from the Ebola crisis, and Boko Haram to debates surrounding the "Africa Rising" narrative and neo-imperialism. The book makes a substantial contribution by moving the academic discussion beyond the traditional critiques of journalistic stereotyping, Afro-pessimism, and ‘darkest Africa’ news coverage. It explores the news outlets, international power dynamics, and technologies that shape and reshape the contemporary image of Africa and Africans in journalism and global culture.

The images that readily capture people's imagination when asked about Africa are: hunger, disease, famine, malnutrition, civil strife, unpaved roads and general underdevelopment. These images constitute black Africa's burden. They paint a stunning irony between that sense of pride that streams from Africa's status as the font of human civilization and its inability to build that sense of pride into better lives for its people. Dr. Ogula makes the case in "Africa Rising: Shedding Black Africa's Burden," that black Africa must take responsibility for its own development without allowing its primal proclivities taking control. He maintains that to lift themselves out of poverty and disadvantage and rise to join the global community, black Africans must examine those aspects of their cultural heritage which are incompatible with 21st-century life, and adapt to the contemporary socio-political environment, so that they can embrace the opportunities for development offered by cooperation with intercontinental partners. "Black Africa must prove itself capable of advancing its own development plans to win the respect of the global community." Dr. Ogula examines controversial subjects as the impact of slavery and colonialism, the enduring leadership and governance challenges of post-independence African nations; black assimilation of a false self-image, subversive, subservient and self-destructive activities which manifests in subtle behaviors oblivious to the black African. He acknowledges that the problems identified as Black Africa's burdens are complex - that the history and record of African achievement is fractured and incomplete, due in part to the destructive influence of this cultural collision. He argues that Africans who suffered colonial oppression and cultural appropriate face two fundamental challenges: Preserving their cultural identity and cleansing aspects that are at odds with the modern world to allow for contemporary technology-based, post-industrial globalized, economic, political and social structures.

The book tries to provide answers and perspectives on these and other questions: Who is benefitting from Africa's growth prosperity narrative? Are Africans at last taking matters into their own hands or is this just another Scramble for Africa? Is Africa now run by post structural adjustment oligarchs? How can Africa compete with the rest of the world? Who are the players on the continent? What do they want? What does this mean for the future of Africa, for the future of Africans? What is the role of colonial powers in Africa's continued resource plunder? Are Africans benefitting from the Chinese engagements in Africa?

Africa will account for 80 percent of the projected 4 billion increase in the global population by 2100. The accompanying increase in its working age population creates a window of opportunity, which if properly harnessed, can translate into higher growth and yield a demographic dividend. We quantify the potential demographic dividend based on the experience of other regions. The dividend will vary across countries, depending on such factors as the initial working age population as well as the speed and magnitude of demographic transition. It will be critical to ensure that the right supportive policies, including those fostering human capital accumulation and job creation, are in place to translate this opportunity into concrete economic growth.
