This bold, popularizing synthesis presents a readily accessible
introduction to one of the major themes of twentieth-century world
history. Between 1922, when self-government was restored to Egypt,
and 1994, when nonracial democracy was achieved in South Africa, 54
new nations were established in Africa. Written within the
parameters of African history, as opposed to imperial history, this
study charts the processes of nationalism, liberation and
independence that recast the political map of Africa in these
years. Ranging from Algeria in the North, where a French colonial
government used armed force to combat Algerian aspirations to
home-rule, to the final overthrow of apartheid in the South, this
is an authoritative survey that will be welcomed by all students
tackling this complex and challenging topic.
