Kenyan Revolution

Report

Contemporary economists worldwide now realise that economic development is not just a matter of more capital generating more goods to be traded by more people. Rather, the emphasis now is on the development of knowledge about what can be done, who can do it and for whom. Markets emerge as suppliers find out what consumers want and how to provide for those wants most effectively and hence profitably. The profits then fund new investment for growth. Seen in this light, the story of the cell phone revolution in Kenya is fascinating. This comprehensive study looks at what the mobile revolution has done for Kenya and its citizens.
