This article describes the cultural and political history of Africa's contribution to the globalization process, revisits the conceptual and pragmatic relationship between globalization and development, and offers solutions, drawing from published materials retrieved from the Web, libraries, and original New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) sources. Further, it examines the connection between audience agenda setting, international investment, and NEPAD's plan for the application of information and communication technology toward the social and economic development of African countries and offers suggestions to NEPAD governing bodies on how to use local sites, business entities and technology to realize its objectives.
