This handbook examines the intricate relationships between Africa and Asia, focusing on historical and contemporary connections. The Routledge Handbook of Africa–Asia Relations is essential for understanding these dynamics.
Taking a thematic approach, this handbook explores the growing diplomatic, trade, and investment connections between Asia and Africa. It delves into political, diplomatic, and economic issues while also considering societal interactions and historical processes. By examining earlier connections between the two regions, the book provides insights into their current standing within the international system.
The Routledge Handbook of Africa–Asia Relations is the first comprehensive handbook dedicated to studying the interactions between African and Asian countries. It offers a balanced discussion of both historical and ongoing processes that have shaped intercontinental relations over time. Contributors utilize a thematic approach to explore how these two distinct, yet closely linked, areas of the world can be conceptualized together.
With comparative examples throughout, the handbook covers various chronological sections, including early colonial contacts, modern interactions through diplomacy and political networks, and contemporary relations that emphasize economic, security, and environmental cooperation. This work engages with significant intellectual questions, defines current research trajectories, and outlines future investigative agendas. It is poised to be of great interest to students of African and Asian politics, as well as researchers and policymakers involved in Asian and African studies.
