This book takes a multidisciplinary and long-term historical perspective to study the evolution of African political systems and institutions. It ranges from Antiquity (Egypt, Kush, and Axum) to the present, with a particular focus on the destruction of these political systems and institutions through successive exogenous processes, including the Atlantic slave trade, imperialism, colonialism, and neo-colonialism or globalization.
