Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. AFRICA IS NO LONGER THE PRIZE. IT IS THE PIVOT.The 21st-century race for global dominance is not fought with armies, but with asphalt, steel, and debt. At the heart of this geopolitical showdown is Africa, the supplier of the world's most critical green energy minerals.In the late 1800s, Europe launched the Scramble for Africa. Today, a New Scramble is underway, defined by two competing economic visions: China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI): A massive empire of infrastructure-built for speed, secured by debt, and anchored by efficiency.America's Lobito Corridor: A Western-backed counter-strategy offering transparency, local ownership, and a direct Atlantic route for minerals.Drawing on expert analysis and 2025 updates, Africa's New Scramble exposes the true stakes of this rivalry: control over the supply chains of the future. The book reveals how Beijing's "Digital Silk Web" and Washington's "Atlantic Gambit" both leverage infrastructure as an instrument of influence.This book is essential for understanding: The Copperbelt Calculus: Why Central Africa's mineral wealth (DRC, Zambia) has become the most contested economic zone on earth.Sovereignty 2.0: How African nations are using the competition itself as leverage to escape the "Resource Curse," demanding transparency, fair contracts, and local value creation.The Geopolitics of Corridors: How the new network of ports and railways will shape trade, security, and climate justice for the next century.The moral of the map is clear: Africa is refusing to be the terrain of the struggle. It is becoming the referee. The world's next economic equilibrium will depend on who Africa chooses to partner with, and under what terms. Definitive 2025 analysis of the US-China showdown for Africa's critical minerals (Lobito vs. BRI). Exposes how infrastructure (ports, rail) determines global power and resource sovereignty.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The Tshisekedi Shift: Dismantling Kagame's Looting Network and Forging DR Congo's Great Economic TransitionBy Marcus A. SterlingFor decades, the Democratic Republic of Congo was the world's richest poor nation-its soil bursting with cobalt, copper, and gold while its people endured exploitation, conflict, and despair. The Tshisekedi Shift reveals how a new generation of Congolese leadership is breaking that cycle, reclaiming control over the nation's mineral wealth, and reshaping the balance of power in Central Africa.Drawing on field interviews, investigative data, and firsthand analysis, Marcus A. Sterling traces the quiet revolution launched under President Felix Tshisekedi: the renegotiation of the billion-dollar Sicomines deal, fiscal and customs reforms that finally forced accountability, and a sovereign economic vision centered on the Fonds Souverain de la Republique.This is not another book about Africa's tragedy-it is the story of Africa's turning point. Sterling connects the dots between Kinshasa's internal reforms and the shifting global chessboard of China, the United States, and regional power brokers. The result is a gripping portrait of a nation reclaiming its agency after decades of foreign capture.Part expose, part economic blueprint, and part diplomatic wake-up call, The Tshisekedi Shift challenges investors, policymakers, and citizens alike to rethink what sovereignty means in the twenty-first century.Key Themes- The end of the resource-curse narrative and the rise of fiscal sovereignty- The geopolitical consequences of Congo's mining and infrastructure renegotiations- The global race for critical minerals and Africa's new leverage- Case studies: Sicomines renegotiation, Lobito Corridor, Inga III, and the Beni reformsAbout the AuthorMarcus A. Sterling is a finance professional and geopolitical analyst whose work bridges economics, governance, and diplomacy across Africa's Great Lakes region.For press or speaking engagements: - X (Twitter): atMarcusASterling This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Why does the richest nation on earth depend on borrowing to stay wealthy?

The book breaks down how borrowing fuels innovation, stabilizes markets, strengthens U.S. leadership abroad, and anchors the modern financial order.With clarity and authority, Mutarambirwa shows why austerity politics misunderstand the foundations of American prosperity-and how the United States can navigate debt cycles without triggering collapse.A timely, provocative, and essential guide for anyone trying to understand the future of the U.S. economy, the global financial system, and the forces that keep America rich.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. For more than sixty years, USAID was one of America's most visible instruments of influence abroad. Then it unraveled. Why?In An Autopsy of American Altruism: The Rise and Fall of USAID, Bosco Mutarambirwa traces the extraordinary rise, transformation, and fall of the United States Agency for International Development, from John F. Kennedy's Cold War vision to an era in which the very purpose of American foreign aid came under attack.USAID was created to promote development, strengthen fragile nations, and project an image of American generosity. But from Vietnam to Latin America, Africa, Afghanistan, and beyond, the agency carried a contradiction at its core: it preached self-reliance while imposing outside priorities, promoted partnership while serving U.S. strategic interests, and pursued humanitarian goals while operating increasingly alongside the machinery of American power.Over time, those contradictions became institutional.Development merged with counterinsurgency. Bureaucracy multiplied. Contractors proliferated. Washington demanded measurable results from problems that could not be solved on a spreadsheet. Meanwhile, China built infrastructure, new powers entered the development arena, and countries across the Global South gained alternatives to the Western aid model.Then the crisis came home.As American voters and political leaders increasingly questioned foreign assistance itself, USAID faced a threat no overseas mission could solve: the collapse of the domestic consensus that had sustained it.This book examines: An Autopsy of American Altruismis not simply the history of one government agency. It is an examination of power, idealism, bureaucracy, sovereignty, and the limits of America's attempt to change the world.To understand the rise and fall of USAID is to understand something larger: what happened to the American idea of global leadership. What caused the rise and fall of USAID? In An Autopsy of American Altruism, Bosco Mutarambirwa examines six decades of foreign aid, institutional contradictions, and America's changing role in global development.
