内容説明

This is the third and final volume in the distinguished History of Central Africa, co-edited by David Birmingham and Phyllis M. Martin. An international team of experts examines the transformations that followed the end of colonial rule in the early 1960s. They compare the legacies of British, Belgium, French and Portuguese colonisation in tropical Africa and explore such issues as the fragility of the state; the growth of politicised ethnicities; migration from the countryside to urban centres; the growing gap between wealthy elites and the masses; the movement of refugees; and the growth of vibrant popular cultures.

内容説明

This text offers analysis of what has happened to Central Africa since the period of vigorous decolonization in the 1960s. It compares the legacies of British, French and Portuguese colonization and explores the internal dynamics of change as people adapted to new national identities, economic developments and urbanization. It covers the modern nations of Angola, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Gabon, Malawi, Mozambique, Zaire, Zambia and Zimbabwe and considers the impact on the region of the ethnic conflict in neighbouring Rwanda and Burundi.
