The journey with him around Africa is like being shown around the bush by a top safari guide, who offers an always brilliant and stimulating account of the natural world, forcing the listener to look afresh.” Michael Holman, former africa editor, Financial times, London

With forty years’ background in the economics ofAfrica and the developing world, Duncan Clarke is aleading writer, thinker and speaker on economics andgeopolitics in Africa. Founder and Chairman ofGlobal Pacific & Partners, an advisory firm, his recentwork includes Africa: Crude Continent – The Strugglefor Africa’s Oil Prize (Profile Books, 2010; now aCNBC Africa TV/Film documentary).

Throughout the centuries, Africa has concealedmultiple secrets, waylaying and confounding theunwary. Today, as economists, politicians, experts and the cognoscenti from within and outside thecontinent seek to “fix” Africa and its perceivedproblems, the need to understand its mysteries hasnever been greater.

Africa’s Future tells the tale of Africa’s economicevolution, providing unique prisms through which toview the continent’s panoramic story – ultimately oneof triumph over the influences of nature and overmultiple political tragedies. It explains how Africa ineffect went backwards for one and a half thousandyears, from the Roman Empire to 1500 CE. Only inmore recent times has Africa gradually begun toevolve and grow, to the point at which its modern and archaic economies uneasily coexist today.

Modern Africa has developed diverse economicpathways to betterment – yet survivalist economiesstill litter the landscape. The continent’s paradox of“subsistence with many faces” is manifested in its tinymiddle class, its growing numbers of rich, and theever-greater numbers of poor expected in the future.

Duncan Clarke, acclaimed author of Africa: CrudeContinent and an acknowledged expert on theeconomics and geopolitics of Africa, provides freshand challenging insights into our vision of Africa’seconomies and future, offering seasoned views on acontinent of enormous potential which has witnessedmany false dawns. As his discerning analysis shows,Africa is coveted as much by the developing empiresof today as it was by other empires in the past. And ashe suggests, perhaps this rich continent’s destiny canindeed be discerned from its embedded history.

“A richly detailed review of Africa’s past and what it tells us about the future, providing a sobering view of the realities on the ground. indispensable for anyone interested in global trends in the 21st century.” ian Morris, author of Why the West Rules - For now, and Willard Professor of classics and Professor of History at stanford university “This is a book that exudes an intense love of subject, and regales the reader with exquisite nuances and fascinating insights.” Robert D. kaplan, author of Monsoon: the indian Ocean and the Future of american Power, and senior Fellow, center for new american security in Washington, and foreign correspondent for the atlantic for over a quarter-century “duncan Clarke’s latest book on Africa sets out to answer tough questions about the continent, often asked but seldom satisfactorily answered: What shaped Africa’s economies? What went wrong? And can its recent growth be sustained? The result is rather like travelling around Africa in the company of a knowledgeable and entertaining guide who draws lessons from the past while mapping out the future. Challenging theories and defying conventional wisdom throughout, he knows Africa too well to come up with easy or glib answers and provides a stimulating and thought-provoking journey.” Michael Holman, former africa editor of Financial times, London, was raised in central africa and is author of three novels set in east africa “duncan Clarke, one of the most astute analysts of Africa - widely read and travelled - writes from the inside about Africa’s long history: from the origins of humankind, through slavery, colonialism to the economic dilemmas and difficulties faced today. Enormously stimulating, Clarke boldly rethinks Africa’s economic future.” Professor Francis Wilson, school of economics, university of cape town, author of Dinosaurs, Diamonds & Democracy: a short, short History of south africa.

“A highly accomplished work and must-read on Africa and its political economy of oil ,,, in an epic which illuminates Africa’s ‘inner worlds and deftly weaves together the continent’s ancient, post-colonial and modern histories ... an outstanding work ... to delight even old Africa hands in this time, well-informed and masterful treatise.”Barry Morgan africa correspondent, upstream international, the

international oil and gas newspaper

“no other writer matches his unique knowledge of the global energy industry and Africa’s historical, political and economic oil context. Clarke’s insights into contemporary policy, poverty, corporate strategies and African geopolitics make his book required reading for energy industry executives, investment analysts and African policy-makers, diplomats, donor agencies, banks and international lenders. Very good stuff.”

Professor tony Hawkins, Financial times correspondent

“if i need to know anything about oil in Africa, i go straight to this book.”Richard Dowden, Director, the Royal african society

“Clarke’s tour de force is ... brave and bold. Brave in its scope and bold in style, and the odyssey is compelling reading.”tim Hughes, Programme Head, governance of africa’s Resources

Programme, south african institute of international affairs

“duncan Clarke’s Crude Continent matches its ambition, tackling a subject that has baffled, frustrated and confused a galaxy of pop stars and super-models, academics and Un expert, aid workers and business leaders, and journalists ... informed by an unrivalled knowledge of Africa’s oil industry.”

Michael Holman, former africa editor of the Financial times

“La bible du pétrole African ... qui détaille près de quarante ans de bataille pour le pétrole africain, du Cap au Caire. Tel un safari à travers le continent, le réciet de duncan Clarke guide le lecteur dans les coulisses de la conquête du brut africain, avec force détails et ancedotes, tantôt humoristiques.”
