Foreign News Coverage in Six African Newspapers
A New Look at Foreign News Coverage
This study focuses on determinants of foreign coverage different from those entertained by debate about New International Information Order (NIIO): national interests and media traditions. It is common knowledge that newspapers devote little space to foreign news; we know even less about what that small space contains. The NIIO discussions suggest that third world newspapers, dependent mostly upon western wire services, have little choice but to …
Ivoirien Student Perceptions of U.S. Africa Policy

France and Fragmentation in West Africa
The term ‘balkanization’, as applied to colonial policy in Africa, frequently suggests a European ‘divide and rule’ policy, intended to fragment pre-existing African unity. An examination of the policy of France towards the former federation of French West Africa indicates that the term is inaccurate to describe French policy. The federation was created by the French for the French. It served to streamline French administration during the period …
Ghana and Guinea, 1966-A Case Study in Inter-African Relations

Most of the new states have been politically independent for less than a decade and their international character is not yet clearly established.
