Merchant Capital and the Roots of State Power in Senegal: 1930–1985 - Cambridge Studies in Comparative Politics
Boone, Catherine (University of Texas, Austin)

This 1993 book examines the ways in which the exercise of state power in Africa has inhibited economic growth, focusing on the case of Senegal.
