UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA - AFRICAN STUDIES CENTER |
African Political Science Association.
H-AfrPol is an on-line discussion forum, web site, and
electronic service for scholars, students, teachers,
diplomats, members of the international humanitarian
community, and others interested in the serious study
of current African politics. This refereed discussion
forum is designed to focus, to the extent possible,
on both strategic-level and practical issues involving
political system development and viability, the democratizing
process, the roles of external humanitarian and political
intervention, and those indigenous traditional political
elements which enrich and complicate modern political
life in Africa. H-AfrPol's coverage is not limited
by the Sahara; we will include any useful submissions
concerning the whole continent and the adjacent islands.
At the core of these activities is the H-AfrPol discussion
forum for those desiring a source of regular and open
communication of ideas and information regarding the
understanding of African politics. Discussions are
to be open and constructive. The editors are prepared
to accept material in French, although such material
may have less response from the discussion forum. Participants
are invited to use the forum as a means to bring matters
of immediate interest to the attention of the forum.
H-AfrPol welcomes research reports and inquiries, bibliographies, syllabi and course materials, listings of new sources, library and archival information, non-commercial announcements of jobs, books, exhibits, journals, conferences, fellowships, and funding options, as well as reports on new software, datasets, CD-ROMs, and other electronic information relevant to the study of current African political developments. H-AfrPol is edited by Walter Clarke, a retired Foreign Service Officer with many years of experience working on African affairs; Amos Anyimadu, University of Ghana; and Chris Johnson, University of Florida. It is advised by a board of scholars and is endorsed by the American Political Science Association and the African Political Science Association.
