Germany's Africa policy revisited

Más información sobre el libro

Although Germany has been a major international player in Africa ever since West Germany's readmission to international politics after 1955, surprisingly little has been written about this topic, and even less reliable knowledge has been established. This study poses the need for a review of Germany's relations with the African continent over the past decades. It challenges scholars to fill the factual gaps that characterize the state of research so far.Ulf Engel is associate professor of politics in Africa at the Institute of African Studies, University of Leipzig.
