        African Govts need good governance and not free market capitalism/neo-liberalism.

        Good governance itself involves an open market for ideas and other freedoms. Has nothing to do with neo-liberal strawman

        Neo-liberal ideals stand in the way of a critical inquiry into the nature of good governance

        Good article, but coffee statistic misleading - Most of Germany's coffee imports are from Brazil, Vietnam etc. https://www.statista.com/statistics/509060/coffee-supplier-countries-by-import-volume-germany/ …
