AFS 223 - Regional History of Africa
Given the immensity of the African continent, it is often divided into regions (such as east, west, north, or southern, equatorial, the Horn, the Sahel, Atlantic or Indian Ocean) to explore connections and boundaries. This course gives students the opportunity to focus more deeply on a region of Africa. The particular region examined will change each semester. Factors that integrate a region may be environment and land use strategies, long-distance trade networks, religious communities, imperialism, and political regimes. The course will examine the challenges to regional integration, such as conflicts, language diversity, and separatist movements.
3 credits
