Africa is in the process of significant change. The nature of this change, dimensions, and what change might bring will depend on young people who now represent three quarters of the population of the continent. This book contributes to ongoing discussions and provides a pathway and guide for a new generation of young African leaders to emerge and not to miss the opportunity for real transformative change. The book provides a thought-provoking analysis of the political and economic systems in Africa. In its analysis of development challenges and opportunities, it shows how millennials can be the catalyst for change in leadership and governance behavior. Consequently, the book argues how this can improve the fortunes of Africa's estimated 1.3 billion people. It is inspired by the factual circumstances of Africa's significant history, a deep understanding of current power relations, and motivated by an ambitious vision of Africa's role in the world. The book combines a deep explanation of concepts with a range of techniques and recent illustrative applications. It also embraces a multi-method approach that allows for the embedding of primary and secondary forms of data. A cross-fertilization of ontological arguments and analytical techniques from a range of allied disciplines further contribute to the book's novelty. The book appeals to multiple stakeholders including students, researchers, practitioners, and policy-makers. 001442663 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 10, 2021). 001442663 650_0 $$aGeneration Y$$xPolitical activity$$zAfrica. 001442663 650_6 $$aGénération Internet$$xActivité politique$$zAfrique. 001442663 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xPolitics and government$$y21st century. 001442663 651_6 $$aAfrique$$xPolitique et gouvernement$$y21e siècle. 001442663 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001442663 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in political science,$$x2191-5474 001442663 852__ $$bebk 001442663 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-88546-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001442663 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1442663$$pGLOBAL_SET 001442663 980__ $$aBIB 001442663 980__ $$aEBOOK 001442663 982__ $$aEbook 001442663 983__ $$aOnline 001442663 994__ $$a92$$bISE
