Graham Harrison investigates contemporary African politics by
privileging the dynamics of political struggle and resistance. Through
the analysis of peasant politics, debt and structural adjustment,
democratization and identity politics, the author shows the importance
of resistance and agency. Detailed studies of Mozambique, Nigeria, and
Burkina Faso demonstrate how political organization and resistance
have been closely ingrained in particular post-colonial trajectories.
An original and refreshing approach to the study of African politics,
this will be a useful textbook for upper level undergraduates and
postgraduate students.
