Produktbeschreibung
Zambia is a remarkable country on a remarkable continent, whose inhabitants to a large extent are still mostly poor, but who are rightfully called "entrepreneurs at heart". As the Economist put it: The 21st Century is the African Century. "Young Zambia" portrays Zambia, as a country "amidst poverty and abundant resources". In spite of major attractions such as the amazing Victoria Falls and vast national parks, Zambia is not yet widely known as a tourist destination. Among business people Zambia has a reputation of being Africa's second biggest producer of copper and being rich in other natural resources and gemstones. Adding to this, Zambia has recently been working on setting up a framework for becoming a major digital hub in Africa. Last but not least, NGOs and political observers praise Zambia for its history of several peaceful transitions between different ruling parties - s.th. not yet to be taken for granted in Africa. In August 2021 Zambian voters went to the polls bringing in the so-called New Dawn Government under President Hakainde Hichilema - a change which has since attracted a lot of international attention and caused the local currency Kwacha to appreciate. The "Young Zambia" team of Zambian experts on country and people was thus inspired to work on a new edition of the book, which was first published in October 2019. The new Africa Edition - among other things - includes information on Covid-19 in Zambia - and will become available both in Zambia and Europe.
