This book examines Ghana's Pan-African foreign policy during
Nkrumah's rule, investigating how Ghanaians sought to influence the
ideologies of African liberation movements through the Bureau of
African Affairs, the African Affairs Centre and the Kwame Nkrumah
Ideological Institute. In a world of competing ideologies, when
African nationalism was taking shape through trial and error,
Nkrumah offered Nkrumaism as a truly African answer to colonialism,
neo-colonialism and the rapacity of the Cold War powers. Although
virtually no liberation movement followed the precepts of Nkrumaism
to the letter, many adapted the principles and organizational
methods learnt in Ghana to their own struggles. Drawing upon a
significant set of primary sources and on oral testimonies from
Ghanaian civil servants, politicians and diplomats as well as
African freedom fighters, this book offers new angles for
understanding the history of the Cold War, national liberation and
nation-building in Africa.
