La présence française en Afrique noire est une période encore mal déchiffrée ... Après l'indépendance des anciennes colonies, les liens entre l'Afrique et la France ont changé de nature : car l'aventure française en Afrique n'a pas été uniquement une histoire de conquêtes et de colonisation. La passion y prit une grande part, passion si forte que le continent noir a continué d'occuper une place particulière dans l'imaginaire de l'ancienne "métropole". Qu'il s'agisse d'art, de littérature, d'enseignement, de tradition administrative ou de mémoire militaire, l'Afrique a été et demeure très étroitement mêlée à l'histoire française. Jean de la Guérivière, journaliste spécialiste de l'Afrique, nous présente ce qu'il appelle "l'histoire d'une passion française", cet extraordinaire roman franco-africain. Confrontant ses impressions personnelles aux nombreux témoignages de ceux qui l'ont précédé, cherchant des exemples dans la littérature, les documents, les archives de l'époque coloniale, faisant appel à de nombreux témoins, et finalement en évoquant les principaux lieux, il nous présente d'une manière imagée et vivante cette aventure extraordinaire. Résumé de Gabrielle Amaudruz Cazenave.

Fous d’Afrique est une pièce didactique. Le problème de l’éducation civique et morale des jeunes générations se trouve posé en son centre, à travers le cas exemplaire de Kouamé. L’éducation des générations montantes peut et doit être celle de futurs citoyens responsables. Elle doit permettre à chaque jeune d’améliorer son sort tout en l’incitant à contribuer efficacement à l’édification de la nation. C’est pour cette double raison que les problèmes les plus divers sont abordés dans cette pièce : situation de la femme, rôle de la famille, souci de l’intérêt national, rendement scolaire des élèves et étudiants. Fous d’Afrique parle de la Côte d’Ivoire et de l’Afrique de demain, qu’il faut commencer à bâtir aujourd’hui.

During the first half of the twentieth century, movements seeking political equality emerged in France's overseas territories. Within twenty years, they were replaced by movements for national independence in the majority of French colonies, protectorates, and mandates. In this pathbreaking study of the decolonization era, Adria Lawrence asks why elites in French colonies shifted from demands for egalitarian and democratic reforms to calls for independent statehood, and why mass mobilization for independence emerged where and when it did. Lawrence shows that nationalist discourses became dominant as a consequence of the failure of the reform agenda. Where political rights were granted, colonial subjects opted for further integration and reform. Contrary to conventional accounts, nationalism was not the only or even the primary form of anti-colonialism. Lawrence shows further that mass nationalist protest occurred only when and where French authority was disrupted. Imperial crises were the cause, not the result, of mass protest.

For much of the twentieth century, France recruited colonial subjects from sub-Saharan Africa to serve in its military, sending West African soldiers to fight its battles in Europe, Southeast Asia, and North Africa. In this exemplary contribution to the "new imperial history," Gregory Mann argues that this shared military experience between France and Africa was fundamental not only to their colonial relationship but also to the reconfiguration of that relationship in the postcolonial era. Mann explains that in the early twenty-first century, among Africans in France and Africa, and particularly in Mali--where Mann conducted his research--the belief that France has not adequately recognized and compensated the African veterans of its wars is widely held and frequently invoked. It continues to animate the political relationship between France and Africa, especially debates about African immigration to France. Focusing on the period between World War I and 1968, Mann draws on archival research and extensive interviews with surviving Malian veterans of French wars to explore the experiences of the African soldiers. He describes the effects their long absences and infrequent homecomings had on these men and their communities, he considers the veterans' status within contemporary Malian society, and he examines their efforts to claim recognition and pensions from France. Mann contends that Mali is as much a postslavery society as it is a postcolonial one, and that specific ideas about reciprocity, mutual obligation, and uneven exchange that had developed during the era of slavery remain influential today, informing Malians' conviction that France owes them a "blood debt" for the military service of African soldiers in French wars.

The heroes of the British and French empires stood at the vanguard of the vibrant cultures of imperialism that emerged in Europe in the second-half of the nineteenth century. Their stories are well known. Scholars have tended to assume that figures such as Livingstone and Gordon, or Marchand and Brazza, vanished rapidly at the end of empire. Yet imperial heroes did not disappear after 1945, as British and French flags were lowered around the world. On the contrary, their reputations underwent a variety of metamorphoses in both the former metropoles and the former colonies. This book develops a framework to understand the complex legacies of decolonisation, both political and cultural, through the case study of imperial heroes. We demonstrate that the ‘decolonisation’ of imperial heroes was a much more complex and protracted process than the political retreat from empire, and that it is still an ongoing phenomenon, even half a century after the world has ceased to be ‘painted in red’. Whilst Decolonising Imperial Heroes explores the appeal of the explorers, humanitarians and missionaries whose stories could be told without reference to violence against colonized peoples, it also analyses the persistence of imperial heroes as sites of political dispute in the former metropoles. Demonstrating that the work of remembrance was increasingly carried out by diverse, fragmented groups of non-state actors, in a process we call ‘the privatisation of heroes’, the book reveals the surprising rejuvenation of imperial heroes in former colonies, both in nation-building narratives and as heritage sites. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History.

A revised and updated edition of the landmark book about the miraculous continent by the finest living Africa correspondent. Every time you try to say 'Africa is...' the words crumble and break. From every generalisation you must exclude at least five countries. And just as you think you've nailed down a certainty, you find the opposite is also true. Africa is full of surprises. For the past three decades, Richard Dowden has travelled this vast and varied continent, listening, learning, and constantly re-evaluating all he thinks he knows. Country by country, he has sought out the local and the personal, the incidents, actions, and characters to tell a story of modern sub-Saharan Africa - an area affected by poverty, disease and war, but also a place of breathtaking beauty, generosity and possibility. The result is a landmark book, compelling, illuminating, and always surprising. This revised edition has an additional chapter on Ethiopia and has been updated throughout to reflect changes such as the death of Mandela and the attack on the Westgate Mall in Nairobi. It also includes two new maps and a new final chapter considering the shape of Africa's future.
