Thank you
To mr appurdurai’s final proclamation to ‘expediting Africa’s human development’ (@ 12:52) - there wasnt proficient or legible enough reason as to why he made a moral dilemma of Africa’s development.
Their paper has been such a really helpful work for me as PhD scholar in the field of South-South trade. Well written. Engaging. And over here - well presented. It's often hard to find works that focus on broader trends like these.
Great Ideas.,I must contribute here
