HTY 210S - Colonial Africa

Institution:

University of Maine at Farmington

Subject:

Description:

Since the origins of most, if not all, of modern Africa's problems can be traced back to the colonial era, this course will survey the history of the continent from the onset of European domination to the present. Topics will include changes wrought by the colonial presence, African reactions to these changes, the rise of nationalism, decolonization and the problems facing newly independent Africa. While we will of necessity be focusing the bulk of our attention on political phenomena, social and cultural events will also receive attention. (Pall/Fail option) Every two years. Credit: 4
