This book analyzes the phenomenon of xenophobia across African
countries. With its roots in colonialism, which coercively created
modern states through border delineation and the artificial merging
and dividing of communities, xenophobia continues to be a barrier
to post-colonial sustainable peace and security and socio-economic
and political development in Africa. This volume critically
assesses how xenophobia has impacted the three elements of
political economy: state, economy and society. Beginning with
historical and theoretical analysis to put xenophobia in context,
the book moves on to country-specific case studies discussing the
nature of xenophobia in Nigeria, South Africa, Zambia, Ghana and
Zimbabwe. The chapters furthermore explore both violent and
non-violent manifestations of xenophobia, and analyze how state
responses to xenophobia affects African states, economies, and
societies, especially in those cases where xenophobia has
widespread institutional support. Providing a theoretical
understanding of xenophobia and proffering sustainable solutions to
the proliferation of xenophobia in the continent, this book is of
use to researchers and students interested in political science,
African politics, peace studies, security, and development
economics, as well as policy-makers working to eradicate xenophobia
in Africa.
