African development – from the past to the present
African development – from the past to the present -- offers a unique economic history perspective on Africa's development. Over a period of five weeks, the course covers a logical account of historical events and decisions that have shaped the current political-economical landscape of Sub-Saharan Africa - from the pre-colonial and the colonial era to the era of liberalisation, modern day Africa and the future prospects of the continent.
One does not need to have a dedicated historical interest to benefit from the course. The course targets a broad range of professional groups, actors, organisations and curious individuals – all sharing a common interest in improving their understanding of the limitations and opportunities inherent in the Sub-Saharan African continent.
LUSEM’s MOOC on African development runs over five weeks with a 3-7 hour workload a week. The course sessions run in a direct sequence one after another.
