'Africa and the World: Navigating Shifting Geopolitics' is one of the first books to analyze the global geopolitical landscape from an African perspective, with a view to the opportunities and challenges facing the African continent. Authors in this edited volume argue for the need to reimagine Africa's role in the world. As a cradle of humanity, a historical fountain of profound scientific knowledge, an object of colonial conquest and, today, a collective of countries seeking to pool their sovereignties in order to improve the human condition, Africa has a unique opportunity to advance its own interests.
Section one: Africa in the changing global scenario -- Section two: Island Africa and conceptualising the global strategic landscape -- Section three: Africa and the Indian Ocean nexus -- Section four: Atlantic-Pacific equations -- Concluding reflections & charting the path ahead.
