In this book, Olukunle Olowabi explores the divergent developmental consequences of nations in the Global South that were shaped on the one hand by forced settlement, where European colonists established large-scale agricultural plantations with enslaved African labor, and on the other by colonial occupation. He shows that most forced settlement colonies emerged from European domination with higher levels of education attainment, greater postcolonial democratization, and favorable human development outcomes relative to Global South countries that emerged from colonial occupation after 1945. Covering the entire postwar era, this is the first book to systematically examine the distinctive patterns of state-building and institutional development that resulted from forced settlement and colonial occupation in the Black Atlantic world.

Die internationalen Wirtschaftsbeziehungen entwickeln sich dynamisch, sie reagieren auf weltpolitische Ereignisse und nationale Entscheidungen und prägen diese mit. Dieses Buch macht die faszinierende Thematik der internationalen Handelsbeziehungen für Studierende der Volkswirtschaftslehre und Politikwissenschaften sowie für alle Interessierten überschaubarer, verständlicher und damit auch interessanter. Es zeigt Strukturen und Zusammenhänge auf und macht die vielfältigen wirtschaftlichen Verflechtungen transparent. Welthandelsbezogene Entwicklungen werden analysiert, Bedeutungszusammenhänge und Akteure sichtbar gemacht sowie aktuelle Daten und Informationen sinnvoll zugeordnet. Auch die Rolle der Entwicklungsländer in der Weltwirtschaft wird eingehend thematisiert.Auf modelltheoretische Erklärungen wird zugunsten einer eher exemplarischen Darstellungsweise verzichtet. Auf diese Weise ergänzt und erweitert das Buch den theoretischen Lehrstoff einschlägiger Standardlehrbücher zur Außenwirtschaftstheorie und -politik durch praxisbezogene Überlegungen und Beispiele. Damit eignet sich das Buch nicht nur als erste Orientierung und Einführung in das komplexe Themengebiet, sondern auch als Handbuch und Nachschlagewerk.
