Abstract
  • The rise of right-wing populist forces in the Global North is also changing the parameters for development cooperation and trade with Africa—aid is being tied to migration control and culturally conservative agendas, while protectionist barriers are reducing market opportunities. The authors outline a progressive counter-strategy with four levers—fiscal autonomy, a fair and accelerated AfCFTA, investment in people and innovation, and strong, democratic governance. They at the same time advocate for more partnership-based approaches by Western actors to ensure Africa’s self-determined, resilient development.
