|summary=''Trade not Aid'' is the start point for African entrepreneur Andrew Rugasira’s account of a Ugandan coffee company start-up. Interesting polemic against international aid and for the creation of wealth and employment opportunies by the private sector, to solve Africa’s immense problems.

There are few billionaire black African entrepreneurs. As Andrew Rugasira points out in ''A Good African Story'', the people who make money from African exports are virtually always white Westerners. Even Fair Trade participants remain skewed by the status quo of trade barriers which discriminate against Third World countries.
I’d recommend both [[Enough: Why the World's Poorest Starve in an Age of Plenty by Scott Kilman and Roger Thurow]] and [[Aid and Other Dirty Business: How Good Intentions Have Failed the World's Poor by Giles Bolton]], both published in 2008.
