  • African History in Comparative Perspective

    A I Asiwaju, Anthony I Asiwaju Anthony I AsiwajuARTICLEAfrika Zamani2022Referências: 5

    General Background History is as inherently comparative as it is contemporary, thus identifying the discipline as the main cutting edge of the humanities into the social sciences. There is an undeniable connection between the subject of study, the human past, on one hand, and, on the other, the historian, alive and present. Where, as is the case with many historians, research and/or teaching engagements are about societies and cultures other than…

  • Borders as Bridges, not Barriers

    A I Asiwaju, Anthony I Asiwaju Anthony I AsiwajuARTICLEAfrica Review of Books2016

    In the year 1960 alone, a total of 17 African countries gained flag independence, followed in quick succession by many others in the following years, invariably validating the euphoria that the 1960s was the decade of independence for Africa.With a plethora of former colonial possessions of European countries gaining independence, there was palpable anxiety,if not outright expectation, that the new African nation-states would explode, combust and…

  • Centring the Margins

    A I Asiwaju, Anthony I Asiwaju Anthony I AsiwajuARTICLEAfrica Review of Books2011

    The inherently interdisciplinary and comparative nature of studies of borders of modern states, which are offshoots of the Westphalian system, has led to their broad categorization into ‘traditional’ and ‘modern’ border studies. Raimondo Strassoldo, a leading scholar and pioneer of border studies in Europe, would appear to have appropriately captured this distinction when he described the latter vis-a-vis the former in terms of ‘a new emphasis on…

  • Borders and borderlands as linchpins for regional integration in Africa

    A I AsiwajuARTICLEJournal of Borderlands Studies1993Citada por: 3Referências: 10

    The purpose of this article is to draw attention to an international economic integration strategy which, while still being ignored by policy makers and planners in Africa, has in recent decades gained in importance and achievements in Europe and is currently being actively recommended for the adoption of governments in North America. Rather than keeping rigidly to the approach whereby development is initiated from the top, usually through the op…

    Open AccessA I AsiwajuARTICLEAfrica1979Citada por: 2Referências: 8

    Introduction The limited objective in this paper is to call attention to the need to bridge an important gap in scholarly literature on the Aja, which so far has focused on the groups within the borders of the present-day Republics of Bénin (formerly Dahomey) and Togo in much the same way as Yoruba studies were once restricted to the groups within the frontiers of Nigeria, particularly the area of it now covered by the States of Ogun, Oyo and Ond…

  • Migrations as Revolt

    Open AccessA I AsiwajuARTICLEThe Journal of African History1976Citada por: 59Referências: 6

    This study is offered as a contribution to the literature on African protest movements during the era of colonial rule. Existing studies of migration emphasize the socio-economic aspects of motivation and have tended to gloss over or even omit migrations in which the dominant factor was disapproval of colonial policy. Existing studies of African protest movements focus on armed confrontations, perhaps because of their greater dramatic appeal. The…

  • Ashby Revisited

    A I AsiwajuARTICLEAfrican Studies Review1972

    The purpose of this paper is to put on the scale of history the recommendations of what is commonly, though unofficially, referred to as the Ashby Commission and to weigh the importance of the Commission in the light of educational developments in Nigeria since September 1960 when the Commission submitted its report to the Nigerian Government. The end of 1971 made proposals in the report more than ten years old; and it is perhaps time for the his…
