Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper introduces a special section of the Canadian Journal of Development Studies, “The Africa Mining Vision: A Manifesto for More Inclusive Extractive Industry-Led Development?” Conceived by African ministers “in charge of mineral resources” with inputs and guidance from African Union Heads of State, the Africa Mining Vision (AMV) was officially launched in February 2009. The papers presented in this special section reflect critically on progress that has since been made with operationalising the AMV at the country level across Africa; the general shortcomings of the manifesto; and the challenges that must be overcome if the continent is to derive greater economic benefit from its abundant mineral wealth.
