Описание:

Independent Africa explores Africa's political economy in the first two full decades of independence through the joint projects of nation-building, economic development, and international relations.

Drawing on the political careers of four heads of states: Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana, Ahmed Sekou Toure of Guinea, Leopold Sedar Senghor, and Julius Kambarage Nyerere of Tanzania, Independent Africa engages four major themes: what does it mean to construct an African nation-state and what should an African nation-state look like; how does one grow a tropical economy emerging from European colonialism; how to explore an indigenous model of economic development, a "third way," in the context of a Cold War that had divided the world into two camps; and how to leverage internal resources and external opportunities to diversify agricultural economics and industrialize.

Combining aspects of history, economics, and political science, Independent Africa examines the important connections between the first generation of African leaders, and the shared ideas that informed their endeavors at nation-building and worldmaking.

Описание: "The Search" is an adaptation of Geoffrey Chaucer`s "The Pardoner`s Tale," and conveys many original cautionary themes to a new audience. Straying from Chaucer`s work, Charlotte Akyeampong creates new characters, not only to widen the scope of the story, but also to ensure effective interaction of different characters.

Описание:

A young child's health hangs in a balance, and the reality that unfolds around him becomes a portrait of some of the complex natures of humankind and the virtues or otherwise that define our choices. The setting is a Ghanaian town, but the truth of the plot may very well replay in any village, town or city anywhere in the world. Like a blinding light at night, a family is left alone when they need a father the most. The betrayal is painful and the family, left with little money and a sick child to care for, find themselves gasping for air. Life, seen through the predicament of the sick child, affirms a faith that God indeed works everything out in the end.

"When the Child Fell Ill" is an intriguing blend of prose, poetry and song. There are moments that are piercingly sad, and others where the reader and audience could find solace in hope. In every scene, we find in the characters some of the simple, yet poignant attitudes that define our choices both small and great, and all of which are carefully woven into the tapestry of our lives and those of our families.
