Botsuana Un oasis de esperanza en la soledad del Kalahari
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
La República de Botsuana, con su tangible prosperidad en el alcance del bienestar para su población tras la superación de desafíos adversos, constituye una singularidad en comparación con los trayectos que han seguido otros países del Sur Global y, por lo tanto, provee un caso interesante para analizar los diversos factores que posiblemente contribuyan de forma positiva hacia cursos deseables de desarrollo. En ese aspecto, en el presente trabajo se evalúan estos factores, su efecto en los aspectos políticos, etnoculturales, económicos y legales del Estado, y la influencia percibida que tienen sobre el resultado deseado. Se proveen también recomendaciones sucintas con base en las fuentes revisadas.
