Bücher der Reihe Routledge African Studies

Africa has been and currently is the site of numerous conflicts and crises. Authors previously wrote of these as specifically African problems or the problems of Europeans in Africa, but newer scholarship on other aspects of Africa has come to stress the interconnectness of Africa and the wider world. Still, it has often been limited to studies of isolated instances within African countries, with little-to-no connection to greater patterns of international power and violence. This volume explores the historical and present local and international dimensions of the myriad security crises in Africa, from the role of international relations during liberation to multination efforts against piracy.

Providing comprehensive coverage of major and minor figures in the history of African American Politics, from Colonial America to the present, this collection includes a vast array of original articles, speeches, statements and documents.
