Enclaves of Wealth and Hinterlands of Discontent: Foreign Mining Companies in Africa's Development

---

This report comprises 8 papers that were presented at a conference organised in Ghana in 2008, on the theme: ‘Beyond Foreign Direct Investment in Africa’s Mining Sector’. The papers explore various financial and practical aspects of mining sector reform in sub-Saharan Africa.

The report points that national policies on mining in Africa have not been adequate to optimise the benefits or translate marginal benefits into building the productive capacities of local communities in mining areas. Thus, in order to enhance the developmental potential of mining, the authors suggest the renegotiation of mining contracts and the revision of mining regimes.
