Description

Explore alternative histories of power in this scholarly volume from Routledge. Bringing together historians, political scientists, and literary analysts, The Politics of Biography in Africa examines how biographical narratives reveal little known or under-researched aspects of state power in African politics. Part 1 of this collection demonstrates how these narratives give voice to subjects who were often silenced during decolonization, including women, workers, and radical politicians. The contributors analyze the relationship between biographical narratives and power, questioning the influence of Western colonial biographical codes. This work provides a deep look into the margins of history and the complex dynamics of political identity within the Routledge Studies on Gender and Sexuality in Africa series.
