KÜRESELLEŞMENİN AFRİKA ÜZERİNDEKİ EKONOMİK VE POLİTİK ETKİLERİ

Küreselleşme Afrika devletlerini ekonomik ve politik olarak önemli ölçüde etkiler. Ekonomik olarak Afrika, dezavantajlı şekilde de olsa küresel pazara dünyadaki diğer bölgelerden önce entegre olmuştur. Küreselleşme ile ortaya çıkan iş bölümü Afrika’nın, fiyatların dışardan belirlendiği hammadde üreticisi olarak rol almasına neden olmuştur. Bu, Afrika ekonomisinin marjinalleşmesine neden oldu. Bu yüzden Afrika politikası bağımsız olamamıştır ve dış yardımlar bu konuyu derinleştirmiştir. Kıtanın zayıf ekonomik durumu, politikasının dış yardım politikalarına bağlı olmasına neden olmuştur. Bu süreçler uluslararası iş bölümünde, iktisadi ve politik gücün dağılımında, Afrika’nın kaderini açlık, az gelişmişlik ve yolsuzluğa terk ederek, bir dizi krize sahne olmuştur. Bu makalede küreselleşmenin Afrika üzerindeki hem ekonomik hem de politik etkilerini incelemek amaçlanmıştır

ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL IMPACT OF GLOBALIZATION ON AFRICA

Globalization impacts significantly on African states, particularly economically as well as politically. Economically, Africa was connected to the global market earlier than most of the other regions in our globe, but in a disadvantageous way. International division of labor that came with globalization place Africa’s role as the producer of raw materials, which prices are externally determined. This led to marginalization of African economy. African politics is not independent and the foreign aid was one of the key factors that perpetuated and prolonged this issue. The poor economic conditions of the continent led their politics to be dependent on foreign aid and policies. These processes have impelled series of cumulative and conjectural crisis in the international division of labor and global distribution of economic and political power; thereby qualifying basic African fate to be poverty, underdevelopment, corruption and among other crisis of failed state. This paper is aimed to examine both the economic and political impacts of globalization on Africa.Keywords: Africa, Globalization, Development, Economic impact, Political impact
