The South African Communist Party
This journal was founded during a period when the socialist transformation of newly independent countries of Africa and Asia was on the agenda and the existence of the communist party-led socialist state of Cuba was a reality in Latin America.We made no bones about aiming to produce a journal which would publish well-researched articles in solidarity with movements and parties working towards the liberation and transformation of Africa from imper…
Forestation in CMIP6
Forestation is expected to play an significant role as a terrestrial carbon dioxide removal technology in low-emission scenarios by storing carbon in the biosphere, thereby changing the physical properties of the land surface. To represent land use change, including afforestation and reforestation (AR), Earth system models (ESM) that contribute to the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) draw on common projected land use data fro…

Knowledge production for liberation
This article recalls the germination of a radical left journal on Africa and its development over the last five decades. Its purpose was always a political one: to support through research and debate both the struggles that were then still being waged for independence from colonial and settler colonial rule and the continuing struggles against neocolonialism. There was always a tension between support for movements and regimes and taking a critic…
The return of recession, debt and structural adjustment
The return of recession, debt and structural adjustmentAs our editorial in Issue 173 argued, we are 'witnessing the intensification of neoliberalism and an accompanying resurgence of its associated power and institutions, maybe above all the IMF in Africa and elsewhere'.A world recession induced by pandemic and war, a consequent boom in energy prices and a cost-of-living crisis with rising inflation, especially of food prices, is threatening to r…

A flawed freedom
It wasn't supposed to be like this.The liberation of the African continent from imperial rule was always going to be a complex process and not necessarily one that would bring meaningful freedom and democracy to the peoples of the continent.But those of us on the left, after the initial disappointments of Ghana and Guinea, saw emerging possibilities for genuine socialist liberation in Tanzania, Mozambique and, most crucially for the future of the…
Land, liberation and democracy
This paper is a revised version, for this issue, of the keynote address to the Colloquium in Cape Town in honour of Lionel Cliffe. It maps out the key features of Lionel’s life and his work starting in Tanzania in 1961, where through his long period of teaching, research and engagement, he formed much of what became his approach to the analysis of African social formations and appropriate policies for development and change. His founding role in …
Exodus
The refugee crisis of 2015 in Europe has brought out the best and the worst in human behaviour and public policy on the immigration of refugees, asylum seekers and ‘economic’ migrants. While German
Climate change and drought
Climate change is likely to increase drought risk during the 21 st century in many parts of the world. Climate model projections, under a range of emissions scenarios, consistently show that seasonal rainfall is likely to decrease across large parts of southern Europe, north Africa, central Asia and southern Africa, and reductions are also possible in other dry parts of the world. The effects of climate change, however, will be superimposed on th…
Rural Cooperation & the Renewal of Rural Socialism in Africa
This article examines the debates over the role of co-operatives in the building of socialism and more generally their possible role as important organisations for boosting production and creating opportunities for collective decision making in capitalist and transition economies. It does so by putting centre stage the benefits of rural co-operation as well as the historical pitfalls. It stresses the opportunity for cooperatives to boost the demo…

Agricultural Tradables and Economic Recovery in Uganda
Passing the buck
Multilateral debt owed to international financial institutions is now widely recognised as an obstacle to economic recovery and poverty reduction in many of the world's poorest countries. Against this background, the Group of Seven industrialised countries have acknowledged at the Toronto Summit the urgent needfor an agreement on multilateral debt relief, setting the scene for an important debate on the subject at the annual IMF-World Bank meetin…
The political economy of the ‘green revolution’ in Africa
This article sets out to survey the extent to which new agricultural technologies associated with ‘Green Revolution’ (the introduction of high yielding varieties of foodgrains and/or their associated biochemical and mechanical technologies) have been introduced in Africa and attempts a preliminary assessment of their economic and social effects. There is now significant evidence of the introduction and adoption of higher yielding varieties of mai…
