Abstract
Africa has been, and continues to be, marginalised in both the practice and study of international relations (IR). However, in light of the increased influence of the emerging powers on the continent, and Africa’s improved pro- spects for economic growth and develop- ment, in recent years there has been a renewed interest in its role in the international system. This book responds to what the editor calls ‘the emerging political prominence of the African con- tinent on the world stage’ (1) by providing one of the most comprehensive overviews of Africa’s IR to date.
