Africa Yearbook Volume 12

Politics, Economy and Society South of the Sahara in 2015

丛编：

The Africa Yearbook covers major domestic political developments, the foreign policy and socio-economic trends in sub-Sahara Africa – all related to developments in one calendar year. The Yearbook contains articles on all sub-Saharan states, each of the four sub-regions (West, Central, Eastern, Southern Africa) focusing on major cross-border developments and sub-regional organizations as well as one article on continental developments and one on African-European relations. While the articles have thorough academic quality, the Yearbook is mainly oriented to the requirements of a large range of target groups: students, politicians, diplomats, administrators, journalists, teachers, practitioners in the field of development aid as well as business people.

'In 2012 the Yearbook received the African Studies Association and the African Librarians Council in the United States biennial Conover – Porter Award for Africa – related reference works and stands today as one of the best reference studies for Africa. Africa Yearbook also comes up with individual volumes, dedicated to specific countries (like Mozambique or Ghana) and based on the Yearbook chapters. [...] Reading the Yearbook, one truly grasps the reality of African life and especially the roller – coaster itinerary between huge development leaps (one should always bear in mind that for some time now Africa has been the most successful in terms of economic development region of the planet) and absolute misery and poverty. The same goes for everything from democracy (where one could at the same time make the exact opposite remarks) to sustainable development to counter – terrorism and peaceful resolution of differences in international relations. All in all, the Yearbook is an extremely useful tool for anyone interested in Africa but also an extremely interesting, full in details, book.' - Sotirios S. Livas and Zoe Papadopoulou, in: Journal of Oriental and African Studies Vol. 26 (2017), pp. 454-455
