The image of Africa among Americans at the beginning of the 21st
century is tragic; America's image among Africans is of a place
that is splendid but arrogant and unfeeling. Both have large
elements of truth. Poverty, coups, corruption, pandemic disease,
and tribal, racial, and religious violence are all too common in
Africa. So too is Americans' lack of concern about the people of a
continent that suffers from these tragedies, as well as their
government's support for African governments that treat their
people as prey instead of citizens. The A to Z of United
States-Africa Relations encompasses the relationship between the
two from the trans-Atlantic slave trade to the George W. Bush
administration, with particular emphasis on the Cold War. It
focuses on political and economic aspects of the relationship and
includes cultural relations. This is done through a chronology, an
introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of
cross-referenced dictionary entries on key persons, places, events,
institutions, and organizations.
