Description

Angola is poised between a past marked by civil war and corruption, and a future of potential economic development.

This book examines the post-Civil War period which began in 2002 and saw the rise of a corrupt ruling elite, as well as recent developments in the country.

These include the efforts of the current President, João Lourenço, to reform the regime through political openness, economic growth and a crackdown on corruption.

Rui Santos Verde analyses the country's recent history of corruption and the current attempts at reform in order to determine whether economic and political development is on the horizon for Angola, or whether these reforms are simply a move towards consolidating President Lourenço's personal power.
