African Economic Performance in 2004: A Promise of Things to Come?
Against a backdrop of sustained global growth and high commodity prices, Africa has experienced its best economic performance in many years. While recent economic performance is not merely driven by favourable external factors, African economies still lack proper “shock-absorbers” to withstand internal (e.g. drought and floods, political instability, HIV-Aids, etc.) and external (e.g. volatility of commodity prices and exchange rates) shocks alike.

Successful Entrepreneurs Are Our Last Best Hope
Several recent moves by the leftist administration of President Barack Obama are raising more alarms among those who fear a collapse of the global economy. A blunt summary would be to say the president and his colleagues seek to drastically diminish the standing of America in the world. This would be akin to taking a heavy hammer to the foundation of a house, since (as by far the world's biggest market) the U.S. could fairly be said to be the foundation of global economic activity. Diminishing America will lead to poverty and unrest throughout the world....

How big is the 2011 oil price shock?
