France's presence on the African continent has often been presented
as 'cooperation' and part of French cultural policy by
policy-makers in Paris - and quite as often been denounced as 'the
longest scandal of the republic' by French academics and African
intellectuals. Between the last years of French colonialism and
France's sustained interventions in former African colonies such as
Chad or Cote d'Ivoire during the 2000s, the legacy of French
colonialism has shaped the historical trajectory of more than a
dozen countries and societies in Africa. The complexities of this
story are now, for the first time, addressed in a comprehensive
series of essays, based on new research by a group of specialists
in French colonial history. The book addresses the needs of both
academic specialists and those of students of history and
neighbouring disciplines looking for structural analysis of key
themes in France's and Africa's shared history. -- .
