  • Industrialisation
    1 Foreword ndustry has always played a vital role in development. It boosts economic activity INDUSTRIALISE I along value chains, from raw materials to finished products. It lifts productivity by introducing new equipment and new AFRICA techniques, increases the capabilities of the workforce, and diffuses these improvements into the wider economy. Industry also tends to generate formal employment, which in turn creates social stability. It improves the balance of trade by creating goods for export and replacing imports. Industrialisation, including the encouragement of manufacturing and processing capability, makes for strong and sustainable economic development, creating wealth in the economy. It is a prerequisite to Africa’s sustainable and inclusive growth, achievable through adding value by processing, packaging and marketing its raw materials. Africa must not miss opportunities for such linkages whenever and wherever they occur. There is a golden opportunity over the next few years as African economies pick up the pace. Africa is home to 5 of the 10 fastest-growing economies in the world, but this growth is unsustainable and non- inclusive since it is mostly driven by the export of unprocessed commodities with little value addition. We are starting from a low base. On average, industry generates merely $7001 1 `$` indicates US dollars throughout this text 2 of GDP per capita in Africa, less than a third of Latin America’s output ($2,500 per capita) and barely a fifth of East Asia’s ($3,400 per capita). To industrialise Africa, the African Development Bank is committed to mobilising capital, de-risking investments for the private sector, and leveraging capital markets.

  • Jeremy Baskin, “Paradigm Dressed As Epoch: the Ideology of The
    Paradigm Dressed as Epoch: The Ideology of the Anthropocene JEREMY BASKIN School of Social and Political Sciences University of Melbourne Victoria 3010, Australia Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is a radical reconceptualisation of the relationship between humanity and nature. It posits that we have entered a new geological epoch in which the human species is now the dominant Earth-shaping force, and it is rapidly gaining traction in both the natural and social sciences. This article critically explores the scientific representation of the concept and argues that the Anthropocene is less a scientific concept than the ideational underpinning for a particular worldview. It is paradigm dressed as epoch. In particular, it normalises a certain portion of humanity as the ‘human’ of the Anthropocene, reinserting ‘man’ into nature only to re-elevate ‘him’ above it. This move pro- motes instrumental reason. It implies that humanity and its planet are in an exceptional state, explicitly invoking the idea of planetary management and legitimising major interventions into the workings of the earth, such as geoen- gineering. I conclude that the scientific origins of the term have diminished its radical potential, and ask whether the concept’s radical core can be retrieved. KEYWORDS Anthropocene, ideology, geoengineering, environmental politics, earth management INTRODUCTION ‘The Anthropocene’ is an emergent idea, which posits that the human spe- cies is now the dominant Earth-shaping force. Initially promoted by scholars from the physical and earth sciences, it argues that we have exited the current geological epoch, the 12,000-year-old Holocene, and entered a new epoch, Environmental Values 24 (2015): 9–29.

From analysis of Antarctic environmental rights and procedural means to enforce ice cores, Earth has not seen a concentration this high in those rights.

  • Industrial Development and Growth in Nigeria: Lessons and Challenges
    Working Paper No. 8 Industrial development and growth in Nigeria: Lessons and challenges L. N. Chete, J. O. Adeoti, F. M. Adeyinka, and O. Ogundele* Abstract The structure of the Nigerian economy is typical of an underdeveloped country. The primary sector, in particular, the oil and gas sector, dominates the gross domestic product accounting for over 95 per cent of export earnings and about 85 per cent of government revenue between 2011 and 2012. The industrial sector accounts for 6 per cent of economic activity while the manufacturing sector contributed only 4 per cent to GDP in 2011. The economic transformation agenda, otherwise known as Nigeria Vision 20: 2020, sets the direction for the current industrial policy in Nigeria. The industrialization strategy aims at achieving greater global competitiveness in the production of processed and manufactured goods by linking industrial activity with primary sector activity, domestic and foreign trade, and service activity.

  • The Impact of the Fourth Industrial Revolution: a Cross-Country/Region Comparison
    ISSN 1980-5411 (On-line version) Production, 28, e20180061, 2018 DOI: 10.1590/0103-6513.20180061 The impact of the fourth industrial revolution: a cross-country/region comparison Yongxin Liaoa*, Eduardo Rocha Louresa, Fernando Deschampsa, Guilherme Brezinskia, André Venâncioa aPontifícia Universidade Católica do Paraná, Curitiba, PR, Brazil *[email protected] Abstract The fourth industrial revolution stimulates the advances of science and technology, in which the Internet of Things (IoT) and its supporting technologies serve as backbones for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and smart machines are used as the promoters to optimize production chains. Such advancement goes beyond the organizational and territorial boundaries, comprising agility, intelligence, and networking. This scenario triggers governmental efforts that aim at defining guidelines and standards. The speed and complexity of the transition to the new digitalization era in a globalized environment, however, does not yet allow a common and coordinated understanding of the impacts of the actions undertaken in different countries and regions. The aim of this paper, therefore, is to bridge this gap through a systematic literature review that identifies the most influential public policies and evaluates their existing differences. This cross-country/region comparison provides a worldwide panorama of public policies’ durations, main objectives, available funding, areas for action, focused manufacturing sectors, and prioritized technologies. Findings of this review can be used as the basis to analyse the position of a country against the existing challenges imposed towards its own industrial infrastructure and also to coordinate its public policies. Keywords The fourth industrial revolution. Cross-country/region comparison. Systematic literature review. Qualitative analysis.

  • State, Economy and Empire Module 1 Industrial Revolution and The
    Making of Modern Europe: State, Economy and Empire Module 1 Industrial revolution and the emergence of Industrial Societies in Europe Script Introduction As late as the middle of 18th century, majority of the people in Europe lived in the countryside. It is estimated that over 90% of the people in East Europe – i.e. Russia, Scandinavia, the Baltic and the Balkans – used to live in rural areas. Even in Italy, one of the principal centres of urban life in Europe, only 25-30% of the people used to reside within the perimeters of the city areas. If London (with a population of nearly 1 million) and Paris (half a million) are left out, then only about twenty cities had a population above 100,000; most cities and towns had populations ranging between two and twenty thousand. The state of transport and communications was such that it was easier for news to travel between two capitals, rather than between town and country. The news of the fall of Bastille, for instance, reached Madrid, the capital of Spain, 13 days after the incident, but it took one more day to reach Peron, a settlement merely 133 km from Paris. This picture changed almost totally within the next century almost everywhere in Europe with an exponential expansion of the urban areas, coupled with a dramatic change in the nature and tempo of urban life. The relative significance of agriculture in the economy declined sharply on account of some breathtaking changes in the manufacturing sector. With the growing significance of industry in European economic life, a new era of urbanisation dawned.

A bundle of factors pushed demography. While better sanitary conditions improved health, drove down mortality, and enhanced longevity, agricultural development boosted food production. Farming output not only sustained population growth, it outpaced it enough to help increase average caloric intake per head. To be sure, nutritional inequality remains pervasive today. Countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia still suffer from inadequate supplies, and food poverty persists in advanced economies [see, for ex., Hunger in America, 1985].

Industrialisation as response 06 4. Banks’ industrialisation plans 10 5. Our perspective: A call for action 22 Bibliography 29 Appendix 30 Authors & contributors 31 Acknowledgment We would like to thank all participating executives for their support in completing the survey and sharing their expertise in the interviews with us. Industrialisation | Unlocking the efficiency and agility of the Swiss banking industry 1. Introduction and key findings Since the financial crisis the Swiss Banking industry has been under tremendous pressure. An unfavourable economic climate, rising expectations of empowered customers, increased regulatory focus and intense on- and offshore competition have reduced the revenue margins as a percentage of assets under management of Swiss banks by 21 per cent between 2010 and 2015. Combined with the emergence of FinTech entrants and disruptive technologies, these trends are creating an urgent need for innovation, and also to cut costs and improve agility in order to fund and execute new business models. In recent years many banks have limited themselves to taking only tactical cost reduction measures. We believe it is now time to improve agility and efficiency by industrialising how banks operate. The objective of industrialisation is to eliminate redundancies, re-engineer the value chain, automate and standardise processes wherever possible, while providing transparency about the profit of activities. In collaboration with the Hochschule Luzern, Institut für Finanzdienstleistungen (IFZ), we have conducted an online survey and personal interviews with executives from Swiss banks on their current levels of industrialisation and their industrialisation strategies for the next five years.

  • The Fourth Industrial Revolution and the Recolonisation of Africa; The
    The Fourth Industrial Revolution and the Recolonisation of Africa This book argues that the fourth industrial revolution, the process of accelerated automation of traditional manufacturing and industrial practices via digital technology, will serve to further marginalise Africa within the international community. In this book, the author argues that the looting of Africa that started with human capital and then natural resources, now continues unabated via data and digital resources looting. Developing on the notion of “Coloniality of Data”, the fourth industrial revolution is postulated as the final phase which will con- clude Africa’s peregrination towards (re)colonisation. Global cartels, networks of coloniality, and tech multinational corporations have turned big data into capital, which is largely unregulated or poorly regulated in Africa as the con- tinent lacks the strong institutions necessary to regulate the mining of data. Written from a decolonial perspective, this book employs three analytical pillars of coloniality of power, knowledge, and being. Highlighting the crippling continuation of asymmetrical global power relations, this book will be an important read for researchers of African studies, politics, and international political economy.
