This book provides a guide to the challenges of special economic zones. Focusing on Africa, while also discussing China, Taiwan, Dominican Republic, Malaysia, and South Korea, the impact on economic development of special economic zones is analysed to highlight the successes and failures of these zones. New emerging issues, such as the sustainable development goals and the fourth industrial revolution, are presented as factors that need to be addressed in order for special economic zones to be productive in Africa. The role of foreign direct investments, job creation, industrialization, and regulation is also discussed. Special Economic Zones: Economic Development in Africa aims to set out an empirical framework on how to create effective special economic zones. It will be relevant to researchers and policymakers interested in African and development economics. Gift Mugano (Ph. D) is Adjunct Professor of Economics at the Durban University of Technology, South Africa. He is a distinguished scholar and global authority on International Trade and Finance. He has previously published two books titled Trade Liberalisation and Economic Development in Africa and Perspectives on Comprehensive Internationalisation of Higher Education.
