The most significant thing about Guinea is its potential. It is
strategically located in West Africa, with a well-educated and
hardworking population, and endowed with considerable natural
resources, indeed, enough to make it reasonably affluent if
properly utilized. But this potential has never really been tapped,
due mainly to bad politics with military men following a
charismatic politician, until finally democracy has been achieved.
So, more than half-a-century after achieving independence, the
question remains unanswered: which way will Guinea turn? This fifth
edition of Historical Dictionary of Guinea covers the full scope of
Guinea s history. This is done through a chronology, an
introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The
dictionary section has over 800 cross-referenced entries on key
events, leaders, governmental, international, religious, and other
private organizations, policies, political movements and parties,
economic elements and many other areas that have shaped the country
s trajectory. This book is an excellent access point for students,
researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Guinea."
