Full Description
Africa in World Politics provides advanced undergraduate and graduate students with the perfect introduction to the challenges faced by African states on an increasingly turbulent world stage.
Africa in World Politics has long served as the go-to resource for students of African politics seeking to navigate the continent's complex political and economic landscapes. Updated throughout, this new edition includes new chapters on the unprecedented challenges the continent faces from climate change and the fallout of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Adding to existing coverage of international diplomacy, peacebuilding, women in politics, and the building blocks of political economy, the book also includes expanded coverage of the role of China in Africa, and fresh perspectives on decolonization.
Drawing together insights from some of the world's leading scholars of African politics, this textbook is an essential read for advanced students of political science and African studies.
