Over the past three decades, Africa's resource landscape has undergone significant shifts, with new mineral, oil, and natural gas discoveries coinciding with the increase in global demand for mineral and hydrocarbon resources, and advancements in green technology. In The Politics of New African Resource Discoveries in the Post-Curse Era, edited by Angela Zivo Gapa, scholars and practitioners delve into the intricate dynamics of jackpot resource discoveries in Africa, providing insight into how African governments have managed these discoveries in the post-resource-curse era. Through a series of African case studies, this book critically examines whether Africa stands on the cusp of a post-resource-curse era or if historical patterns of the resource paradox will continue to persist. The contributors explore interventions ranging from citizen feedback mechanisms to institutional restructuring to determine whether recent resource discoveries hold the promise of economic growth and poverty alleviation or if they remain constrained by the global political economy. This book is a collaborative effort to deepen the understanding of global natural resource politics and promote African agency in managing substantial resource windfalls.
