A continental foreign policy is a tenuous proposition, yet new African states emerged out of armed resistance and advocacy from regional allies such as the Bandung Conference and the League of Arab States.

This book examines the key aspects of Africa's external relations and reviews the various political, security and economic strategies through which independent African states have tried to enhance their power and status in the world. The author analyses the ideology of Eurafrica, as well as Europe's evolving relationship with Africa, while also assessing the prospects for African regional integration in the context of Pan-Africanism.
While there are five important festschriften on Toyin Falola and his work, this book fulfills the need for a single-authored volume that can be useful as a textbook. I develop clearly articulated rubrics and overarching concepts as the foundational basis for analyzing Falola's work.

Anladım ki Tanrı, insanların birbirlerinden ayrı yaşamasını istemez. Bu yüzden neye muhtaç olduklarını onlara ifşa etmez. İnsanların bir olmalarını ve bütünlük içinde yaşamalarını diler. Bu yüzden her birine, bütünün muhtaç olduğu şeyi gösterir. Anladım ki insanlar kendilerini düşünerek yaşıyor gibi görünse de gerçekte onları yaşatan tek şey sevgidir. Kim içinde sevgi taşıyorsa, Tanrı’nın içinde yaşar ve Tanrı da onun içinde yaşar, çünkü Tanrı sevgidir.
