    Abstract: "Tax administration reforms are of prime importance for strengthening fiscal state and governance relations in developing countries. African countries have been particularly deficient in this respect. Donor support for tax administration reform in Africa therefore might have a strong impact in enhancing the developing prospects of the continent. This study analyses the experiences gathered to date with donor support for tax administration reform in four African countries: Ghana, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. With strong assistance, all have established semi-autonomous revenue agencies. The study assesses their capacity to collect and process taxpayer information, their merit orientation in the area of human resource management, their relationships with other state organisations and donors, their tax structures and exemptions, and, finally, their revenue performance. One special focus area is the political and socio-economic environment in which the reform projects are embedded. The

    Abstract: "This paper explores the influence that financial sector deficits have on a country's export performance under trade liberalization. It argues that under such circumstances, financial constraints are particularly damaging because trade liberalization increases the demand for finance both in the export sector and for investment. The paper aims to identify the most relevant factors in determining how financial constraints are likely to hinder the export performance of a particular country. Based on these factors, the paper outlines a research scheme that once applied to a particular country, provides a detailed understanding of the financial needs that should be addressed during trade liberalization."

    Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been embraced enthusiastically by Africans as a new resource for African development. AI could improve well-being by enabling innovation in business, education, health, ecology, urban planning, industry, etc. However, the high expectations could be little more than pious wishes. There are still too many open questions regarding the transfer required, and the selection of appropriate technology and its mastery. Given that the 'technology transfer' concept of modernization theories of the 1960s utterly failed because it had not been adapted to local needs, some scholars have called for an endogenous concept of African AI. However, this caused a lot of controversies. Africa became a battlefield of 'digital empires' of global powers due to its virtually non-existent digital infrastructure. Still, African solutions to African problems would be needed. Additionally, the dominant narratives and default settings of AI-related technologies have been denounce
