In this compelling critique, Moeletsi Mbeki dissects how subSaharan Africa remains trapped in a cycle of povertynot due to its people, but its elites. He portrays political and business figures as modern mercantilists, enriching themselves via state patronage (notably BEE deals and resource extraction), while neglecting industrialisation, education and broad economic development. Despite the harsh analysis, he advocates for systemic reform and revitalised leadership.
