Powdered Peas and Other Blessings
Casa Materna was founded in Naples, Italy, in 1905 by Pastor Riccardo Santi. Since then thousands of children from Naples and other economically-depressed towns and villages of southern Italy have lived and been educated there.

This book is a collection of the personal stories of 21 former residents who describe what it was like growing up in this home and the impact it has had on their lives.

African Political Economy in the Twenty-First Century
African Political Economy in the Twenty-First Century: Theories, Perspectives, and Issues edited by Emeka C. Iloh, Ernest T. Aniche, and Stephen N. Azom fills the gap in the discourses on African political economy from an African perspective. Since the end of colonialism in the second half of the twenty-first century, a wide-ranging debate has opened on the future of African development and the nature and character of its political economy, especially as it concerns its web of relationships in the international political and economic system. Two decades into the twenty-first21st century, the debate still rages on and is likely to continue for a long time. This book contributes to the debate by addressing the important question of how African countries can strategically and tactically approach global political economy at multilateral, continental, and regional levels in view of North-South versus South-South configurations. African Political Economy in the Twenty-First Century further suggests how African countries can effectively utilize global forces to Africa’s advantage in advancing domestic, regional, and continental development objectives.
