Academic Paper from the year 2013 in the subject Politics - Region: Africa, Northwest University, course: International Relations, language: English, abstract: Africa's challenges in implementing developmental programmes have to do with fundamentals of the very idea of their dependency underpinning. These challenges include structural, endogenous and exogenous factors which continue to constrain Africa's endeavours. So the argument is that Africa failed to implement or was initially destined to fail. The paper delves deeper into Africa's development trajectory reflecting that developmental plans were destined to fail as long as there was no clear paradigm shift from the long standing and perpetual asymmetric donor-recipient relationship still steeped within weakened neo-colonial relations that are incommensurate with Africa's developmental path.
