Book Synopsis Rent-seeking And Economic Growth In Africa by : Mark Gallagher
Book excerpt: A study of the economic experience of 22 African countries. The author argues that rent-seeking (payment made to a resource beyond what is necessary to get the resource to perform its function) and policies that encourage rent-seeking have played a major role in hindering economic growth.
