The Routledge Handbook of Pan-Africanism provides an international,
intersectional, and interdisciplinary overview of, and approach to,
Pan-Africanism, making an invaluable contribution to the ongoing
evolution of Pan-Africanism and demonstrating its continued
significance in the 21st century. The handbook features expert
introductions to, and critical explorations of, the most important
historic and current subjects, theories, and controversies of
Pan-Africanism and the evolution of black internationalism.
Pan-Africanism is explored and critically engaged from different
disciplinary points of view, emphasizing the multiplicity of
perspectives and foregrounding an intersectional approach. The
contributors provide erudite discussions of black internationalism,
black feminism, African feminism, and queer Pan-Africanism
alongside surveys of black nationalism, black consciousness, and
Caribbean Pan-Africanism. Chapters on neo-colonialism,
decolonization, and Africanization give way to chapters on African
social movements, the African Union, and the African Renaissance.
Pan-African aesthetics are probed via literature and music,
illustrating the black internationalist impulse in myriad
continental and diasporan artists' work. Including 36 chapters by
acclaimed established and emerging scholars, the handbook is
organized into seven parts, each centered around a comprehensive
theme: Intellectual origins, historical evolution, and radical
politics of Pan-Africanism Pan-Africanist theories Pan-Africanism
in the African diaspora Pan-Africanism in Africa Literary

Routledge Handbook of Pan-Africanism is an indispensable source for
scholars and students with research interests in continental and
diasporan African history, sociology, politics, economics, and
aesthetics. It will also be a very valuable resource for those
working in interdisciplinary fields, such as African studies,
African American studies, Caribbean studies, decolonial studies,
postcolonial studies, women and gender studies, and queer studies.
