The Political Economy of Land and Reparations
The global interest in research on the political economy of reparations has been rekindled by recent developments in the United States of America, but much of this renewed investigation is misinformed, distorted, or limited to recycling what is already known. Recent work by Darity and Mullen is an exception. They have contributed eloquently to age-old debates on reparations for emancipated enslaved Africans. This essay examines their work in the …
A Historical-Cum-Political Overview of Ghana's National Health Insurance Law
African Immigrants and the Aftermath of September 11
Trouble in the Promised Land
Thisarticle explores three questions about the relationship between ethnic studies programs and the quest for incorporation among faculty of color in the academy. The queries it raises include the following: First and foremost, are African American studies departments and other ethnic studies programs necessarily a sign that faculty and students of color are incorporated? Second, in what direct and indirect ways do faculty of color serve as their…
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
Inner-City Contexts, Church Attendance, and African-American Political Participation
Over the years, an undeniable and convincing body of evidence has emphasized the importance of African-American churches as conduits for political skills, resources, and mobilization. In this study, we examine the growing incidence of neighborhood poverty; never-married, parent house-holds; and perceived social isolation to ascertain the extent to which they undermine church attendance and the associated benefits of increased political engagement…
When Blacks in the Diaspora are Still Considered Africans
African Political Leadership
In African politics, Kenya's Jomo Kenyatta, Tanzania's Julius Nyere, and Ghana's Kwame Nkrumah were known for their early radical and socialistic political stance. This text analyzes their nationalistic-cum-Pan Africanist and overall political contributions to African history
