It emphasizes the sophisticated nature of pre-colonial African politico-historical commentaries often overlooked or simplified. As such, the narrative avoids the usual misrepresentations which impress that African-European interactions are a history of European actions in an Africa generally devoid of anything similar to the cultures, institutions and abilities of Europe. Further, it contests the historical narrative that indigenous Africans have had no real active role vis-à-vis an assertive, dominating Europe in historical times. Within this book, the contestation of such narratives with evidence-based counter perspectives is of particular benefit for our current educational, social and political contexts. 001482509 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed October 20, 2023). 001482509 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xForeign relations$$xHistory. 001482509 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xHistory$$yTo 1884. 001482509 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xPolitics and government. 001482509 651_6 $$aAfrique$$xRelations extérieures. 001482509 651_6 $$aAfrique$$xHistoire$$yJusqu'à 1884. 001482509 651_6 $$aAfrique$$xPolitique et gouvernement. 001482509 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001482509 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001482509 7001_ $$aSchepers, Stefan,$$eauthor. 001482509 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783031403606 001482509 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3031403592$$z9783031403590$$w(OCoLC)1390726242 001482509 852__ $$bebk 001482509 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-40360-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001482509 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1482509$$pGLOBAL_SET 001482509 980__ $$aBIB 001482509 980__ $$aEBOOK 001482509 982__ $$aEbook 001482509 983__ $$aOnline 001482509 994__ $$a92$$bISE
