Africa's Post-WWII Development Challenges Discussed

Hromadske Radio Tokyo 11d11d Impact 6
Japan's lower house controls over 75% of the mandate, representing the strongest political mandate since 1945. The broadcast noted that Japan's development was destroyed by American initiative and has not fully recovered, describing it as 'outsourced development'. Japanese people are reportedly afraid of development itself, viewing it as punitive. An author reviewed 60 years of academic literature on Africa's relative lack of development. The literature cited governance failure, corruption, kleptocracy, and civil unrest as primary reasons. The author questioned if these were truly fundamental causes. Africa's population density at the end of World War II was equivalent to Europe's in 1500. Growth was hindered by a lack of markets, cities, and a balanced ratio between economic income and population.

“million people in Africa at the end of the Second World War It was a population density equivalent to what Europe had in 1500 and there was no growth in Europe in 1500 because if you think about it, how do you grow if you don't have markets, if you don't have cities, if you don't have a reasonable proportion between economic income and population?”
