Book synopsis

The role of French security policy and cooperation in Africa has long been recognized as a critically important factor in African politics and international relations. This new security cooperation, a trend actively promoted by other major Western powers, adds to our understanding of this broader trend in African relations with the industrialized North. Yet this book argues that French involvement in Africa is not in the interest of Africans, since French intervention denies African political freedom and sustains their current social, economic and political conditions. Moreover it illustrates how policies portrayed as promoting stability and development can in fact be factors of instability and reproductive mechanisms of systems of dependency, domination and subordination.Providing complex ideas in a clear and pointed manner, "France and the New Imperialism" is a sophisticated understanding of critical security studies.
