Africa and globalization: colonialism, decolonization and the postcolonial malaise

Ralph A. Austen

Journal of Global History, 2006, vol. 1, issue 3, 403-408

Abstract: Tropical Africa has not fared well either in the contemporary world order or in the globalization literature that has accompanied it. Under such labels as ‘black hole’ ‘blank space’ and ‘the hopeless continent’, this part of the world seems hardly worthy of attention in the study of the connections and energies that define the twenty-first century.
