of markets and the private sector in restoring economic
growth. Recent thinking has also stressed the need for 'ownership'
of economic reform by the populations of developing countries,
particularly the business community. This book studies the
business-government interactions of four African countries: Ghana,
Zambia, South Africa and Mauritius. Employing a historical
institutionalist approach, Antoinette Handley considers why and how
business in South Africa and Mauritius has developed the capacity
to constructively contest the making of economic policy while,
conversely, business in Zambia and Ghana has struggled to develop
any autonomous political capacity. Paying close attention to the
mutually constitutive interactions between business and the state,
Handley considers the role of timing and how ethnicised and
racialised identities can affect these interactions in profound and
consequential ways.
? Features case studies on Ghana, Zambia, South Africa and
Mauritius ? Traces the historical development of core political
institutions and reveals how these shape policy outcomes in
dramatic and consequential ways ? Advances understanding of the
nature of Africa's capitalist classes
