Since the first country on the continent became independent, African governments have been more or less pre-occupied with socio-economic development. Increasingly, the inter-phase between politics and socio-economic development have becoming increasingly evident and more emphasis is been placed on the direct link between politics, good governance, economics and the lives of Africans.
To this end, the journal brings together wide spectra of scholars and researchers engaging in vigorous theoretical and empirical research on African politics, economic policies and the implications for the survival of states and the larger African society.

This 750-page publication creates a holistic, fully informed picture of each African country, region and the continent as a whole, identifying the true “benchmarks” of the continent.

ACBR’s consolidation of such a broad array of data — more than 30 international indexes and ranking systems, ranging from the World Bank’s ‘Ease of Doing Business’ index to Freedom House’s ‘World Freedom Index’, coupled with key indicators and statistics — and the interrogation and interpretation of that data, offers our readers the most comprehensive assessment of Africa’s 54 states. ACBR combines quality data on Africa’s business, economic, political and societal performances with informed, insight-based writing, teamed with series of narrative infographics.

The ACBR is the definitive resource for understanding and realising Africa’s potential.

AJSTID is a multi-disciplinary and refereed international journal with a special focus on science, technology, and innovation in developing economies, with a special reference to Africa.

The second stream concerns the broader area of socio-economic development. The third invites work exploring the inclusion of innovation and knowledge in cross border integration processes particularly in Africa.

The African Yearbook of Rhetoric is motivated by the belief, supported by observation, that a democracy that does not provide its people with the means to argue, rhetoric, is bound to be perverted. This journal is impelled by the conviction, borne by international scholarship in rhetoric, that a duty of deliberation is placed on both governed and government, and is fundamental to the reasonable exercise of citizenship. Scholars, in turn, are duty-bound to interrogate rhetorical processes and truth-making beliefs that instruct, or destroy life in a democracy.
