Reading for revolution

Abstract

This study guide offers a bibliography of books and materials about Africa which are either radical or relevant to a radical analysis. It is not the work of professional bibliographers and cannot claim to be definitive. It represents instead a compilation of books which help illuminate the African situation. We have organized them around various themes which suggest a methodological approach as well. In some cases, we have deliberately omitted well-known but not particularly radical works and in some cases, no doubt, have allowed mediocre material to slip through. We have tried to include only materials which are fairly easy to obtain, and have, sadly, omitted many important documents, pamphlets, and articles, which are unavailable.
