Frontiers of National and International Development: Rethinking Governance and Growth in the Global South (Due mid-late April)
R340.00
Frontiers of National and International Development is an incisive interrogation of statecraft and governance in the Global South. Drawing on theory, policy experience and case studies, particularly from South Africa and China, Ngcaweni explores how capable, ethical leadership is central to transforming national and global development trajectories. From the failures of neoliberalism to the promise of pluriversality and South-South solidarity, this book critiques dominant Western models and offers grounded, context-specific pathways for structural change. With chapters on BRICS, China-Africa relations, local government and bureaucratic renewal, Frontiers is both diagnostic and visionary. It challenges scholars, policymakers and development practitioners to reimagine governance, reclaim agency and build inclusive futures rooted in ethical, effective statecraft. A vital contribution to the literature on political economy and global development.
