First published in 1990, Politics in Modern Africa explores the impact of traditional loyalties (âtribalismâ) on political and economic problems in nine African states-Uganda, Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Senegal, Guinea, Zaire, Angola, and Zimbabwe. Professor Kenneth Ingham, a leading historian of modern African history provides a lively introduction to a complex subject, demonstrating that African countries have drawn more deeply upon their inner resources in shaping their political character than is often realised, and that the intensity of traditional loyalty has varied greatly from country to country.

This book will be specially useful to students and teachers of African history or politics, and to those on development studies courses.
