| Research Abstract |
This research established that (a) the quantitative methods which economists have mainly used to analyze the relationships between ethnic diversity and the performance of African economies are not necessarily appropriate for this purpose, and(b) ethnic diversity does not necessarily lower economic growth or increase economic instability. In addition, the research showed that ethnic identity and economy are mutually dependent, and identified the various routes through which ethnicity and economy affect each other.
