Description

Gain a deep understanding of African political structures with this essential text from Routledge. Originally published in 1984, this wide-ranging introduction provides a comprehensive look at the political landscape of tropical Africa. It is an important resource for students, businessmen, government officials, and economic advisers looking to understand the region. By placing contemporary political scenes within their historical context, the book examines how pre-colonial and colonial heritages shape modern governance. It examines how politicians operate within the constraints of the physical environment, the global economy, and historical legacies, while still maintaining the freedom to make choices on various issues. Thematically organized, this book provides a clear overview of the general similarities across the continent, making complex political dynamics easier to grasp for professionals and academics alike.
