Regulating aircraft emissions: Leadership and Market Power
This article examines the process of including commercial aviation in the EU's Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) relative to claims about the EU's leadership in international environment policy-making. It argues that in order to understand the politics and the emerging shape of specific regimes concerned with atmospheric pollution, scholars must examine the nature of the pollutant and the polluting process concerned, the commercial characteristics o…
The United States and the external aviation policy of the EU
This article examines the impact of deregulation in both the US and the EU (European Union) on both public policy and corporate strategy regarding air transport across the North Atlantic. It argues that deregulation is too often treated as an essentially domestic phenomenon and that analysis too often ignores the interplay between the actions of governments and the strategic decisions of business managements. The article also examines at length t…

Francophone Africa: The Enduring French Connection
France's relations with its former colonies remain close after 26 years of independence, and France has tried hard in the last decade to expand its sphere of influence beyond the ex-colonial core. This article examines French economic and security interests in Africa, as well as the role of Africa in France's foreign policy. It also considers some of the contradictions in French policy, the problems encountered by the Socialist government between…

Africa, the American Intelligentsia, and the Shadow of Vietnam
In 1965, Charles Frankel, a philosopher and an assistant secretary of state in the Johnson administration, remarked that the role of intellectuals in international affairs had been curiously neglected. Since then, a greater sensitivity to the sociology of knowledge and to the resilience of intellectual orthodoxies has perhaps made students more aware of the power that stereotypes and analogies can exercise. Intellectuals, as Frankel noted, are th…
Who Needs African Studies
marginal, and misunderstood. They complain frequently about the ignorance and indifference of the public, the media, and the politicians. Whether their complaints are justified or not, their sense of isolation may make them unusually sensitive to questions of professional identity and purpose-a sensitivity sharpened by the facts of Africa's past and present and the emotions both arouse. These problems are not unique to scholars in African studies…

The Lions of Dagbon: Political Change in Northern Ghana
The political conflict that has taken the most violent form and proved costliest in human lives in Ghana in the last half century has been a chieftaincy dispute in the northern kingdom of Dagomba, known as the Yendi skin dispute. The major loss of life took puce in 1969 but the dispute has continued to trouble Ghanaian politics and has affected the careers of national leaders under both civilian and military regimes. It is one of the most complex…
The manipulation of tradition: ‘Politics’ in Northern Ghana
In the Dagomba kingdom in Northern Ghana there has been a protracted dispute between two branches of the royal family over rights to the skin (throne). This dispute erupted into violence in September 1969 when at least eighteen people were shot dead by the security forces. This article examines the background to the so‐called ‘Yendi skin dispute’ and considers the significance of the distinction between ‘tradition’ and ‘politics’ as used by parti…
The three-party system in Dahomey: Ii, 1956–1957
By the end of 1955, territorial politics in Dahomey were dominated by three parties, the P.R.D. of S. M. Apithy, the M.D.D. of Hubert Maga, and the U.D.D. of Justin Ahomadegbe and others. Each party relied upon electoral support in clearly defined regions: the P.R.D. depended on the south-east, the M.D.D. on the north, and the U.D.D. on the residual areas of central and south-western Dahomey. The U.D.D. claimed, however, to be a new kind of party…
The three-party system in Dahomey: I, 1946–56
The ‘three-party system’ of Dahomey consists of a trio of regional fiefs, created by MM. Apithy, Maga, and Ahomadegbe in the early fifties. The development and persistence of regionalism can be attributed to a low level of economic change, an unusually high level of educational provision, a considerable diversity of ethnic groupings, and an exceptionally rapid process of enfranchisement. Formal political organizations appeared in 1945 and 1946 in…

The Rhetoric of Centre-Periphery Relations
This article is an attempt to explore the frames of reference of two disciplines-political science and social anthropology-as they affect the study of relations between the national 'centre' and the local 'periphery' in African countries. It is exploratory, in that it reviews the assumptions and concepts characteristic of the disciplines, instead of trying to crystallise a new model. In the light of this comparison it then considers the status of…
