Teaching Critical Analysis Skills with Analysis Briefs
Critical analysis, which is defined as the reasoned and logical process of skillfully conceptualizing, applying, analyzing, synthesizing, and/or evaluating information (Scriven and Paul 2001), is at the heart of the research process that propels our profession's knowledge-base forward. In this essay, I describe an effective method that I developed to help inculcate and hone students' critical analysis skills. Indeed, critical analysis skills are …
Changing White Attitudes Toward Black Political Leadership by Zoltan L. Hajnal
Mentoring and African-American Political Scientists
One of the main goals of the Committee on the Status of Blacks (CSB) is to assess how well African-American political scientists are faring in the discipline. Given the nature of the academy, we believe an important element for success is effective mentoring. Our position is supported by the American Political Science Association (APSA) which established a Task Force on Mentoring in 2002 to address issues facing underrepresented groups within the…
Black Sexual Politics
Black Sexual Politics: African-Americans, Gender and the New Racism. By Patricia Hill Collins. New York: Routledge. 2004. 374 pp. $26.00.To a large extent, scholarship on black politics often focuses primarily on institutions, rule of law, processes, political actors, and citizens but with very little attention to issues of gender and sexuality. In contrast, the principal aim of this book is to explore what the author sees as the inextricable lin…
Taking the Sanctuary to the Streets
This study focuses on how institutional, organizational, and political contexts structure the involvement of black churches in the politics of local community development. Interviews with black Baptist clergy in the city of Columbus, Ohio, and analysis of census data are the basis for the discussion. The study shows that despite a general context of exclusion from Columbus mainstream politics, a group of black Baptist ministers have created a str…
African Military History and Politics
African Military History and Politics
Africa’s Recent Colonial Past, 1900–1970
A major goal of this book is to analyze the historical foundations and contemporary manifestations of the various armed forces (including the police) in Africa and their role in the political history of the continent, with an emphasis on coups d’etat. However, a valid assessment of the African military (or armed forces) cannot be attempted without first describing the social, political, and economic contexts in which they evolved. Consequently, t…
Africa’s Armed Forces in Retrospect
The foregoing statement sums up a lot about the military aspect of African politics. It applies well to African military leaders who had the armed forces bequeathed to them by departing colonial officials, especially as regards their expectations and their perception of the military as a status symbol. Yet, from time immemorial, militarism has played a crucial role in African affairs, especially in the historical and political evolutionary proces…
Corrupt and Dictatorial Tendencies
The much-respected retired General Olusegun Obasanjo, who became Nigeria’s elected civilian head of state in February 1999, made an unequivocal statement in 1991 that is very much similar to conclusions reached in several of the most recent books on African political history, including African Political Leadership (1998). Looking at the pathetic nature of African politics, whereby dictators and outright tyrants have held their own people captive,…
African Coups Galore
As an avowed socialist-cum-Marxist, Ghana’s President Kwame Nkrumah always suspected that his government was under the threat of capitalism from nations like the United States of America and Great Britain. In fact, Nkrumah was so suspicious of these countries that, when in Guinea in exile from 1966 until his death in 1972, he blamed the American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) for the setbacks in his plans to regain political power in Ghana, wh…
African Military History and Politics
Africa's former colonial masters, including Great Britain; France, Portugal and Spain, trained members and leaders of the various colonial Armed Forces to be politically non-partisan. Yet, the modern
