This title is translated by David Fernbach.
The 21st century will be the century of Africa. This continent was once seen as empty, rural, animist, poor, and forgotten by the world. Now, fifty years after independence, it is full to bursting, urban and monotheist. If poverty and violence are still rampant, economic growth has taken off again and a middle class is developing.
Africa will hold a central place in the big issues facing the world today. If it once made a 'false start', here it is back again - in the fast lane.
