Africa Yearbook

The Africa Yearbook covers the major domestic political developments and the foreign policy and socio-economic trends in Sub-Saharan Africa in one calendar year. It contains articles on all Sub-Saharan states and each of the four sub-regions (West, Central, Eastern and Southern Africa), focusing on major cross-border developments and sub-regional organizations. There are also articles on continental developments, on Africa and the United Nations, and one on European-African relations. While the articles are of high academic quality, the Yearbook is oriented towards a wide range of target groups: students, politicians, diplomats, administrators, journalists, teachers, practitioners in the field of development aid as well as business people. The Africa Yearbook is the sequel to the German-language Afrika Jahrbuch that used to be published by the Institut für Afrika-Kunde in Hamburg. All the contributions are reviewed by the editors.
