The principal factor that accounts for this failure is the prolific non-productive forms of capitalism that tend to be dominant in the African continent and their governance dimensions. The research explores how and why capitalism has failed in the African context and the feasibility of turning it around. The book meets the demands of diverse audiences in the fields of International Political Economy, Development Economics, Political Science, and African Studies.  The author adopts an unconventional narrativist approach that makes the book amenable to general readership.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eKenneth Omeje\u003c\/b\u003e is Director of Manifold Crown Consulting Services based in Bradford, UK, and Visiting Professor at the Institute of Peace and Security Studies in Addis Ababa University, Ethiopia.
