Great powers and US foreign policy towards Africa
This book addresses one main question of whether the United States has a cohesive foreign policy for Africa. In assessing the history of the United States and its interactions with the continent, particularly with the Horn of Africa, the author casts doubt on whether successive U.S. administrations had a cohesive foreign policy for Africa. The volume examines the historical interactions between the United States and the continent, evaluates American involvement in Africa through foreign policy lenses and compares foreign policy preferences and strategies of other European, EU and BRIC countries towards Africa.
