Long Description | Most Africans live in rural areas and derive their incomes from farming; but because African governments follow policies that are adverse to most farmers' interests, these countries fail to produce enough food to feed their populations. Markets and States in Tropical Africa analyzes these and other paradoxical features of development in modern Africa and explores how governments have intervened and diverted resources from farmers to other sectors of society. A classic of the field since its publication in 1981, this edition includes a new preface by the author. |

Changes are still coming
We just completed a major upgrade to the backend with a minor face lift to the web site. More changes are coming soon!
We completed the upgrade that changed the way we store company data and connect it to the product details. This required a set major database changes and some minor but important web site changes.
Over the next couple weeks we will roll out various other web site upgrades that make use of these new changes and provide you with better access to our data.
As always, if you see anything odd on the site, please let us know and we will get it fixed right away.
