This volume discusses Africa's place in the international system,
examining the way in which the Westphalian system, in light of the
impact of globalization and transnational networks, continues to
play a major role in the structuring of Africa's international
relations.
The book provides a solid empirical analysis of key global players
in Africa - France, the UK, the US, Japan, Germany, the EU and the
UN - and of their policies towards the region. In the context of
the 'war against terrorism', African political stability becomes a
consideration of increasing importance. By analyzing the relevance
of the states in the North, this book challenges conventional
wisdom in recent international relations thinking. It applies the
concept of an 'international policy community' to bridge the gap
between the 'domestic' and the 'international', explaining why
Africa retains a role in global politics out of any proportion to
its economic weight.
"Africa and the North "will interest students and scholars of
international relations and African Politics.
