Download or read book Africa for Sale? written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-06-15 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past several decades have witnessed a rise in foreign and domestic investments in Africa’s arable land. While such land projects are currently the focus of widespread media and scholarly interest, the role of the state in driving, negotiating and facilitating these acquisitions deserves closer attention. This book analyzes how state land policies, stakeholder interactions and privatization schemes interact to facilitate large-scale land acquisitions. It includes a study of the various forms of state intervention, the influence of foreign agencies, governments and private entities, and a look at how states interact with local populations. The inclusion of case studies in settings throughout the African continent should attract the interest of both an academic and non-academic readership.
Book Synopsis Africa Is Not for Sale by : Quincy S Jones
Download or read book Africa Is Not for Sale written by Quincy S Jones and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2022-03-22 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The African continent is for sale and on its way to being owned by the superpowers. Quincy S Jones makes that bold assertion in this book, noting that those signing the sale contracts are dictators willing to kill anyone in return for fistfuls of money. The question is: Will the African people allow this to happen? In calling attention to the stakes, the author seeks to answer questions such as: • How have dictators come to power throughout Africa? • What role does the military play in Africa? • What can be done to stem rampant corruption? • What role does populism play in Africa’s politics? The author also examines the role that guns play in everyday life, the recent military coup in the West African state of Mali, and how various nations have responded to military coups. Ultimately, the author concludes that the only way for Africans to control their destiny is to: • Unite against their dictators. • Build liberal democracies across the continent. • Build an African Défense Alliance “A.D.A” & one currency for Africa to be named “Africa”.

Book Synopsis Atlantic Africa and the Spanish Caribbean, 1570-1640 by : David Wheat
Download or read book Atlantic Africa and the Spanish Caribbean, 1570-1640 written by David Wheat and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work resituates the Spanish Caribbean as an extension of the Luso-African Atlantic world from the late sixteenth to the mid-seventeenth century, when the union of the Spanish and Portuguese crowns facilitated a surge in the transatlantic slave trade. After the catastrophic decline of Amerindian populations on the islands, two major African provenance zones, first Upper Guinea and then Angola, contributed forced migrant populations with distinct experiences to the Caribbean. They played a dynamic role in the social formation of early Spanish colonial society in the fortified port cities of Cartagena de Indias, Havana, Santo Domingo, and Panama City and their semirural hinterlands. David Wheat is the first scholar to establish this early phase of the "Africanization" of the Spanish Caribbean two centuries before the rise of large-scale sugar plantations. With African migrants and their descendants comprising demographic majorities in core areas of Spanish settlement, Luso-Africans, Afro-Iberians, Latinized Africans, and free people of color acted more as colonists or settlers than as plantation slaves. These ethnically mixed and economically diversified societies constituted a region of overlapping Iberian and African worlds, while they made possible Spain's colonization of the Caribbean.

Book Synopsis Slavery and African Ethnicities in the Americas by : Gwendolyn Midlo Hall
Download or read book Slavery and African Ethnicities in the Americas written by Gwendolyn Midlo Hall and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-11-05 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enslaved peoples were brought to the Americas from many places in Africa, but a large majority came from relatively few ethnic groups. Drawing on a wide range of materials in four languages as well as on her lifetime study of slave groups in the New World, Gwendolyn Midlo Hall explores the persistence of African ethnic identities among the enslaved over four hundred years of the Atlantic slave trade. Hall traces the linguistic, economic, and cultural ties shared by large numbers of enslaved Africans, showing that despite the fragmentation of the diaspora many ethnic groups retained enough cohesion to communicate and to transmit elements of their shared culture. Hall concludes that recognition of the survival and persistence of African ethnic identities can fundamentally reshape how people think about the emergence of identities among enslaved Africans and their descendants in the Americas, about the ways shared identity gave rise to resistance movements, and about the elements of common African ethnic traditions that influenced regional creole cultures throughout the Americas.

Book Synopsis Afropolitan Projects by : Anima Adjepong
Download or read book Afropolitan Projects written by Anima Adjepong and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond simplistic binaries of "the dark continent" or "Africa Rising," Africans at home and abroad articulate their identities through their quotidian practices and cultural politics. Amongst the privileged classes, these articulations can be characterized as Afropolitan projects--cultural, political, and aesthetic expressions of global belonging rooted in African ideals. This ethnographic study examines the Afropolitan projects of Ghanaians living in two cosmopolitan cities: Houston, Texas, and Accra, Ghana. Anima Adjepong's focus shifts between the cities, exploring contests around national and pan-African cultural politics, race, class, sexuality, and religion. Focusing particularly on queer sexuality, Adjepong offers unique insight into the contemporary sexual politics of the Afropolitan class. The book expands and complicates existing research by providing an in-depth transnational case study that not only addresses questions of cosmopolitanism, class, and racial identity but also considers how gender and sexuality inform the racialized identities of Africans in the United States and in Ghana. Bringing an understudied cohort of class-privileged Africans to the forefront, Adjepong offers a more fully realized understanding of the diversity of African lives.
