Abstract

ABSTRACT This article applies the concept of policy paradigm and the work of Peter Hall to the analysis of policy change in Sub-Saharan Africa by analysing the implementation process of the Africa Mining Vision (AMV), adopted by the Heads of State of the African Union in 2009. To this end, it draws on the experiences of several West African countries. It suggests that we need to pay close attention to three factors that are too often neglected in the literature on paradigm shifts and policy change: (1) relationships between transnational and national actors, (2) asymmetrical power relations and (3) policy implementation.
