Re...Dr. Jameel, this is quite an interesting topic. Recently I have developed interest in the political economy of higher education. In a paper I wrote on this topic, I found out that, among the developing countries, those that tend to invest heavily in this sector and even go to the extent of attracting foreign students and educational institutions are more likely the countries that have stable political institutions. And doing so help their economic development and growth. Example of these countries include, India, China, Malaysia, South Africa etc. My point here is that it may not be all surprising that most of African countries produce few graduate, with the exception of South Africa, due to their poor investment in the sector which is related to their poor and unstable political institutions.Abubakar Abubakar usmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05632770456750166496noreply@blogger.com
