Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the years following the close of World War II, alien rule in Africa has been all but eliminated, as upwards of thirty independent African nations emerged by the early 1960's. [The author] has selected and arranged forty-eight documents and readings to aid in an understanding of modern African history. The selections discuss: the opening of Africa; the various philosophies and systems of colonial rule and the consequences of World War I on the African scene; the impact of global conflict following 1939; the rise of nationalism; the independence explosion; the nature of the new African governments; Pan-Africanism; the African cultural renaissance; and such unresolved issues as South Africa, Southern Rhodesia, and Angola."--back cover.

Download or read book African Modernism written by Manuel Herz and published by . This book was released on 2022-10-10 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new edition of the most comprehensive survey of modern architecture in Africa to date. When the first edition of African Modernism was published in 2015, it was received with international praise and has been sought after constantly ever since it went out of print in 2018. Marking Park Books' 10th anniversary, this landmark book becomes available again in a new edition. In the 1950s and 1960s, most African countries gained independence from their respective colonial power. Architecture became one of the principal means by which the newly formed countries expressed their national identity. African Modernism investigates the close relationship between architecture and nation-building in Ghana, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Kenya, and Zambia. It features one hundred buildings with brief descriptive texts, images, site plans, and selected floor plans and sections. The vast majority of images were newly taken by Iwan Baan and Alexia Webster for the book's first edition. Their photographs document the buildings in their present state. Each country is portrayed in an introductory text and a timeline of historic events. Further essays on postcolonial Africa and specific aspects and topics, also illustrated with images and documents, round out this outstanding volume.

This book was released on 1979 with total page 880 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AYO LANGLEY, now a permanent Civil Servant in The Gambia, started collecting material for this book while lecturing in political science in the University of Edinburgh. The documents, reports, and extracts that he has selected (from French as well as English sources) illustrates the theme of Black Liberation and self determination that has for well over an hundred years characterized the writings of the great Black thinkers and liberators. In this selection the reader can follow the developments and expansion of the theme from the works of the early fathers, Crummell, Blyden, and Sarbah, through that of Sekyi, Thuku and Chilembwe down to the work of the modern philosopher-kings Nkrumah, Senghor and Nyerere. This book provides a brilliant aid to the better understanding of the development and intellectual problems that beset the modern states of Africa.

Download or read book The Cambridge History of Africa written by J. D. Fage and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1975 with total page 1052 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eighth and final volume of The Cambridge History of Africa covers the period 1940-75. It begins with a discussion of the role of the Second World War in the political decolonisation of Africa. Its terminal date of 1975 coincides with the retreat of Portugal, the last European colonial power in Africa, from its possessions and their accession to independence. The fifteen chapters which make up this volume examine on both a continental and regional scale the extent to which formal transfer of political power by the European colonial rulers also involved economic, social and cultural decolonisation. A major theme of the volume is the way the African successors to the colonial rulers dealt with their inheritance and how far they benefited particular economic groups and disadvantaged others. The contributors to this volume represent different disciplinary traditions and do not share a single theoretical perspective on the recent history of the continent, a subject that is still the occasion for passionate debate.
