Thank you so much for this list! My uni does not offer any African studies - no history, no politics - and I’m an IR major - so I need to do my own study. So this helps a lot!
I met so many Malawians who recommended this book to me! After about the fourth person in two weeks I knew I had to buy a copy quick. So lucky to find one in Zomba!
Hi Dr. Maiden! Loved this list. Would you be able to make a video about book recommendations about International Relations? Would appreciate your suggestions! Thanks! :)
Haha, I don't know how useful my list would be as I am not a trained sociologist. I am a political scientist specializing in peace studies, IR, and African politics.
