African countries
Large quantities of
oil were discovered in the Albertine Rift Valley in Western Uganda in 2006. The
sound management of these oil resources and revenues is undoubtedly one of the
key public policy challenges for Uganda as it is for other African countries with
large oil and/or gas endowments. With oil expected to start flowing in 2021,
the current book analyses how this East African country is preparing for the
challenge of effectively, efficiently, and transparently managing its oil
sector and resources. Adopting a multidisciplinary, comprehensive, and
comparative approach, the book identifies a broad scope of issues that need to
be addressed in order for Uganda to realise the full potential of its oil
wealth for national economic transformation. Predominantly grounded in local
scholarship and including chapters drawing on the experiences of Nigeria, Ghana,
and Kenya, the book blazes a trail on governance of African oil in an era of emerging producers. Oil Wealth and Development in Uganda and Beyond will
be of great interest to social scientists and economic and social policy makers
in oil-producing countries. It is suitable for
course adoption across such disciplines as International/Global Affairs,
Political Economy, Geography, Environmental Studies, Economics, Energy Studies,
Development, Politics, Peace, Security and African Studies.
