Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Despite Africas vast and diverse natural resources, the developmental challenges plaguing the continent still remain. Indeed, a common factor that seems to bind all African countries together is developmental problems and challenges. From North Africa to Southern Africa, across West Africa through to Central and East Africa, African countries, especially those in Sub-Saharan Africa, are faced with the same or similar developmental challenges. Many reasons have been offered for Africas developmental challenges. Amongst developmental economists, the reasons range from geographical, historical, cultural, and tribal factors, to institutional factors. The unfavourable geographical landscape, its colonial and other peculiar histories, the huge diversity in culture and tribe that seem to hinder efforts at unity, and lack of good governance and the institutions of quality governance, have all been given as reasons for the inability of the continent to make good developmental progress. This book offers a strategic human capital approach as a pathway to the sustainable development of African countries. The book synthesizes different knowledge domains on human capital, and presents ways on how human capital can be strategically developed and accumulated by African countries for sustainable development. The book highlights how the continents growing youthful population can be strategically harnessed into human capital for sustainable development. Unlike other books on human capital and Africas development that rely on a single disciplinary perspective, usually from economics, this book takes a multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary approach. The book draws from theories and studies of human capital in economics, the originating discipline of the concept, strategic management, entrepreneurship, and Strategic Human Resources Management. Thus, it is able to present the discuss and recommendations from a holistic integration of the concept of human capital. The book also presents case studies of three countries, Singapore, Finland, and Canada, that have successfully made strategic use of human capital in their national development in different ways; another unique feature of the book. Lessons on national human capital development are drawn from each case study. Another unique feature of the book is its integration of the various global human capital indices available for a comprehensive understanding of the indices, their components, and utility for countries. Finally, the book is replete with many generic and specific recommendations on how human capital can be developed by various stake holders in Africa. A whole chapter is dedicated to generic strategic approaches to human capital development that can be adopted by African countries; and indeed, by all countries as they can be applied by other countries. The generic approaches are cumulatively drawn from resource-based theory (RBT), transaction cost economics, and human capital theory. Another chapter is also dedicated to more specific recommendations on human capital development and accumulation. The book synthesizes different knowledge domains on human capital, and presents ways on how human capital can be strategically developed and accumulated by African countries for sustainable development.
