Book review: The African Reader THE AFRICAN RE.ADER: IN DEPENDENT AFRICA. W il fred Cartey and M a n in K ii stan, eds. New York; Vintage Books, pp.428 $2.45 ‘7» í * r-*? THE AFRICAN READER: INDEPENDENT AFRICA is a collection of documents based on the w ritings and speeches of A frican political leaders and w rite rs . The m a jo rity of the selections were w ritten by black Africans. Therefore, thia book actually presents the A frica n 's points of view as they see it. The book is divided into six main pans with an introduc tion by the editors fo r each section. P a n I, "A fric a n In stitutions: The Foundations fo r S e lf-ru le ,’’ contains re sponses by Casely Hayford, Jomo Kenyatta. James A fr i canus B. Horton and Edward W. Blyden. These selections discuss exploration of the A f rican institutions, self-gov ernment and Pan-African edu cation. A ll these w rite rs agree, in essence, that the process of government is democratic and the people must te completely free to participate in this process. P art II, "Movement fo rln - dependence,” contains w rit ings by Nwafor Orlzu, Nnam- di Azlkime.ObefemiAwolowo, A lhajl S ir Abubakar Tafawa Githendu Mockerie, Donald Barnett, K ararl Njama and Waruhiu Itote. This section discusses the period between 1945 and the 1960’ s when the demand fo r independence be came intensified and continen tal in scope. M ilita n t revolu tionary movements fo r inde pendence, as well as non-vio lent resistance movements are also discussed. P a rt HI, “ The Role of the Intellectual in Independent A f ric a ,” discusses w ritings by Frantz Fanon, Wole Soyinka, Lkpabi Asika, Aime Cesaire, Chinua Achebe, Melesse Aya- lew and Leopold SedarSengh- o r. These w ritings deal with the responsibilities of the A f rican intellectual in his soci ety, namely, to understand and see what is best fo r his coun try , while helpingpreserve the traditions and culture of the past. And to help prepare his society fo r the best waytode- colonizauon, fo r self-govern ment and se lf-ru le . P art IV, "A fric a n P olitical Thought," contains works by Kwame Nkrumah, TomMboya, Oginga Odinga and Julius K. N yerere. This section dis cusses the four basic political approaches to the development of independent A fric a . They are: A frican-oriented social is t methods of development; the freedom of a single ruling party to implement that form of government, whatever the ideology; the restraints which would be placed on the devel opment by forces, which s till attempt to control from out side; and the c ritic a l assess ment from inside of any ideol ogy o r development.

Tolvo Herman Ja Toivo and EduardoC.Mon- dlane. These selections, un like previous ones, are con cerned with the non-indepen dent countries of A frica - namely, Rhodesia. South A f r i ca, Portuguese A frica - defi ance to injustice, retaliation to repression and violent re sistance to slavery. P art VI, " M ilita ris m In A f ric a ,” the last section, was w ritten by s . C . Ukpabrt and M a rtin Legassick. The a r ti cles in this concluding part ex pose and project the vital and dynamic role of the m ilita ry in A frican countries, its de structive, as well as its unify ing and liberating effects. M ost of the a rticle s in the book were chapters taken from previous books that were w ritte n by the authors. There are also a few speeches that were delivered previously by the w rite rs , such as "A De nunciation of European Im per ia lis m ," by Nnamdl Azikwe, "T h e Duty and involvement of the A frican W r ite r ," by Chin ua Achebe, "South A fric a 's Non-violent Struggle Against Oppression.” by A lbert Lu th u ll, and "G u e rrilla W arfare in Southern A fric a ," by M a r tin Legassick. There is a se lected bibliography on each part fo r those wanting to do future research on the six main themes. L ike most " re a d e r" books, the editors attempted to give a cross - section of tie most p ro lific and outspoken African w rite rs . It could, however, have Included w rite rs from N orth A fric a . T ie editors did cover West, East and South A fric a . The main asset of the book was that each a rticle was short and well w ritten and an introduction by the editors preceded each essay. THE AFRICAN READER: INDE PENDENT AFRICA, is a long needed work tle t should defi nitely accompany basic text books in courses in "C o lo n ia l ism in A fric a ," "M odern A frican Thoughts," "E m e rg ing of A frican N ations," and "T w entieth Century A fric a ." It can be useful in P olitical Science classes as well as A frica n H istory classes. By Lenwood C.
