Zambia: Between Two Worlds
In this appealing and accessible case study, the author offers a fully rounded picture of Zambia's course since independence, chronicling the periods of boom and decline after the fall in the price of copper around the mid-1970s. She advocates an internally oriented economic strategy to retain industries and livelihoods, but is not very optimistic about the ability of the current leadership to achieve it.
