• W275948218 abstract "Bold leadership, innovative initiatives, and unprecedented engagement and assistance defined the George W. Bush administrations policies toward Africa. From 2001 to 2008, U.S. efforts helped Africa enjoy significant progress on economic, health, and political fronts. This progress was made possible through a powerful combination of presidential leadership and cabinet-level engagement in the United States with uniquely African ideas, strategies, and solutions to meet challenges on the continent. Going forward, President Obama would do well to use these achievements as a roadmap for his own policies in the region. Under the George W. Bush administration, Africa policy priorities were derived from the Presidents charge to make the world freer, safer, and more prosperous. Specifically, Africa policy aimed to support the spread of political freedom throughout the continent, expand economic opportunity and growth, address the unique challenges of the HIV/AIDS pandemic and other diseases, and reinforce African initiatives to end conflict and fight terrorism. The Bush administration shared responsibilities in reaching these goals with Africans, especially with strategic allies and governments that have had strong records on democracy and the rule of law, and with the African Union (AU) and other sub-regional organizations. U.S. government initiatives reflected the Presidents philosophy that Africa should not be an object of our policy, but rather a partner in solving its own problems and securing a brighter future. This philosophy underscored Secretary of State Condoleezza Rices approach of transformational diplomacy, which emphasized working with foreign governments and people to help them meet their own challenges, create their own opportunities, and build their own nations. President Bush succinctly explained the administrations philosophy to rock star Bob Geldolf during Bushs second trip to Africa in 2008: U.S. solutions should not be imposed on African leaders.1 PRESIDENTIAL LEADERSHIP U.S. Africa policy has seen significant continuity across presidential administrations, including attention to good governance, economic development, and stable peace as core U.S. interests. President Bush and his cabinet, however, made Africa a larger priority in U.S. foreign policy and set a new precedent for U.S. engagement on the continent. The President set the tone and nearly all cabinet secretaries followed his interest in Africa, most notably the secretaries of state, commerce, defense, treasury, health and human services, and labor, and the U.S. trade representative, all taking multiple official trips to Africa. President Bushs first secretary of state, Colin Powell, embraced his African heritage and demonstrated his keen interest in the region by traveling to sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) on one of his earliest official international trips. Condoleezza Rice, both as national security advisor and later as secretary of state, also elevated Africa policy as a strategic interest. When campaigning for George W. Bush in 2000, Rice was adamant that Africa would no longer be relegated to a humanitarian concern in U.S. foreign policy. President Bush remained engaged in Africa throughout his eight-year tenure. He met with at least thirty-six heads of state of SSAs forty-eight countriesmany of them multiple timesand was the first U.S. president to include Africa on multi-country travel itineraries during both his terms. With his bold and well-financed initiatives to advance economic development, combat contagious diseases, and reduce conflict, President Bush significantly raised the bar for future presidential engagement in Africa. BOOSTING PROSPERITY: ECONOMIC INITIATIVES A central priority in President Bushs Africa policy was expanding economic growth and development on the continent. In 2007, SSA experienced an overall growth rate of 6.5 percentone of its highest in decadesand more than twenty countries registered consistent annual growth from 2002 to 2008. …" @default.
