HIST 321 - The Making of Modern Africa


The course will focus on decolonization in Africa since 1940. Colonialism in Africa and the post-colonial period are covered, but the focus of the course is on resistance to colonialism and the process of decolonization, including case studies of South Africa, Nigeria and Algeria. Special emphasis will be placed on the active role of Africans, both men and women, in shaping the political and cultural developments of their continent despite the obvious impact of European colonialism.
