Although Africa seems to most people a remote and impoverished
place remembered for the suffering of its people, it has played an
important role in recent history, and it will play a significant
role in the future of America and the West in general. This volume
of the ANNALS, Perspectives on Africa and the World, provides a
unique opportunity for fresh insight into the continent's past,
present, and future by examining crucial historical turning points
in African history over the past 75 years. The distinguished
authors emphasize that understanding the reality of Africa in the
twenty-first century requires viewing the continent within a
broader context of recent world history. Through the lens of four
watershed events-World War II, the end of colonialism, the cold
war, and the new global interconnections- they show how much of
what happens on the African continent has its origins in
Washington, London, Paris, Moscow, or Beijing, just as events in
Africa can shape the politics and economies of the world, and that
we ignore Africa to our own peril.
