Download or read book Hanging by a Thread written by William G. Moseley and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The textile industry was one of the first manufacturing activities to become organized globally, as mechanized production in Europe used cotton from the various colonies. Africa, the least developed of the world’s major regions, is now increasingly engaged in the production of this crop for the global market, and debates about the pros and cons of this trend have intensified. Hanging by a Thread: Cotton, Globalization, and Poverty in Africa illuminates the connections between Africa and the global economy. The editors offer a compelling set of linked studies that detail one aspect of the globalization process in Africa, the cotton commodity chain. From global policy debates, to impacts on the natural environment, to the economic and social implications of this process, Hanging by a Thread explores cotton production in the postcolonial period from different disciplinary perspectives and in a range of national contexts. This approach makes the globalization process palpable by detailing how changes at the macroeconomic level play out on the ground in the world’s poorest region. Hanging by a Thread offers new insights on the region in a global context and provides a critical perspective on current and future development policy for Africa. Contributors: Thomas J. Bassett, Jim Bingen, Duncan Boughton, Brian M. Dowd, Marnus Gouse, Leslie C. Gray, Dolores Koenig, Scott M. Lacy, William G. Moseley, Colin Poulton, Bhavani Shankar, Corinne Siaens, Colin Thirtle, David Tschirley, and Quentin Wodon.

Download or read book Cotton in Africa written by Uma J. Lele and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of state-federal relations in developing agricultural economies must first address such issues as the overall role of government, the need for public administrative suppport and the relative roles of state and federal governments during agricultural transformation. After examining the historical antecedents of local-state-federal relations in agricultural development, this paper presents an analytical normative model suggesting guidelines for assigning fiscal responsibilities for agricultural programs among tiers of the government. It then examines empirical evidence against the background of the analytical model; isolates the critical issues in government relations in Nigerian agriculture; and makes some recommendations that may guide relationships in the future. The next sections present a brief sketch of historical antecedents and an analytical model of the criteria for assigning responsibilities for agriculture between state and federal governments. The paper then examines the empirical evidence, while the final section isolates the critical issues in local-state-federal relations in Nigerian agriculture.
Download or read book Cotton Sector Strategies in West and Central Africa written by Mr.Ousmane Badiane and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cotton production in West and Central Africa (WCA) has contributed to growth and poverty reduction. Recently, the objective of poverty alleviation has been adversely impacted by the downward pressures on world prices (exacerbated by subsidies by major cotton producers outside Africa). Several countries in WCA are undergoing reforms in the cotton sector to stimulate greater market competition and raise the share of the international price going to farmers. While these efforts would help to improve rural income irrespective of the world market situation, they would be more powerful in combination with a reduction in other countries’ subsidies in this sector.
Download or read book The Peasant Cotton Revolution in West Africa written by Thomas J. Bassett and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The literature of Africa is dominated by accounts of crisis and gloom. But Thomas Bassett, a distinguished American geographer well known in the field of development, tells an unusual story of the growth of the cotton economy of West Africa. One of the few long-running success stories in African development, change was brought about by tens of thousands of small-scale peasant farmers. While the introduction of new strains of cotton in French West Africa was in part a result of agronomic research by French scientists, supported by an unusually efficient marketing structure, this is not a case of triumphant top-down 'planification'. Employing the case of Côte d'Ivoire, Professor Bassett shows agricultural intensification to result from the cumulative effect of decades of incremental changes in farming techniques and social organization. A significant contribution to the literature, the book demonstrates the need to consider the local and temporal dimensions of agricultural innovations. It brings into question many key assumptions that have influenced development policies during the twentieth century.
