This book examines the presence of Africa as a significant force in
the western Indian Ocean. Africa will increasingly play a pivotal
role in the future of the geopolitics of the Indian Ocean region.
The book considers the scope for greater African involvement in
Indian Ocean region-building activities, and seeks to encourage a
western Indian Ocean dialogue. The book publishes some of the best
papers presented at an Indian Ocean Research Group (IORG Inc.)
symposium held in Nairobi, Kenya, in 2013, entitled "The Political
Economy of Maritime Africa in the Indian Ocean Region." This
symposium was part of a larger project on constructing a sense of
"Indian Oceanness". Chapters include: India's new policy of
engagement with Africa; China's growing presence in the Indian
Ocean Region; security strategies in the Western Indian Ocean; the
increasing importance and significance of the Western Indian Ocean
littoral; and cultural linkages between Africa and the Indian Ocean
region. This book was previously published as a special issue of
the Journal of the Indian Ocean Region.
