Résumé

This book covers a wide spectrum of important issues that are central to investment in natural resources and ultimately, economic development of Africa. The author and the expert contributors analyse the relationships between good governance and resource management, as well as the existing commercial and financial agreements. The environmental implication of resource exploitation and the international dimensions of the industry are also explored in this insightful study. Each comprehensive and concise contribution highlights the importance of transparency and equity in investment and management of natural resources.
