Covering African history and politics, this textbook explores key events from the Atlantic slave trade to contemporary development challenges. It employs various development theories to analyze the successes and failures of individual nations post-1960. Thematic discussions highlight Europe's colonial legacy, state formation, democratization, and issues such as resource curses, population growth, and ethnic conflicts. Additionally, it examines the influence of external actors like the World Bank, EU, and China on Africa's development trajectory.
