Africa and the Expansion of International Society (eBook, ePUB)

Surrendering the Savannah

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

It can be argued that the nature of the contemporary international relations is largely the product of the expansion of a core group of European states' political institutions from the late 19th century. This book offers a critique and reappraisal, presenting a series of case studies which trace how the expansion process evolved over the course of modern West-Central African and Western European history.
