Court Records in Africana Research
A series of panels at the ASA meeting in November 1989 focused on sources and methods for the study of law in colonial Africa.

This survey, like others existing in English, is less than complete, having been conceived only after we completed…

Their archives, located in Rome, are a treasure trove for Africanists of all disciplines. In founding the order in 1868, Cardinal Lavigerie, archbishop of Algiers, charged its members to bring Christianity to Africa not by imposing Europe…
