The rise and rise of the African middle class
The rise of the middle class, as a percentage of the population, has been steady -- in 1980, 111-million, or 26% of the continent's population, fell in this category, rising to 151.4-million, or 27% of the population in 1990, with a further surge to 196-million in 2000 and a dramatic increase to 313-million in 2010 equating to 34.3% of the population (African Development Bank, 2011). In contrast, the rise in absolute numbers, compared to the percentage rise, has been more dramatic and this is best explained by the increase in population with Africa having hit the one-billion population mark in 2010.
Dr Jacqueline Chimhanzi and Anushuya Gounden speak to Polity's Shannon de Ryhove about the rise of Africa's middle class.
