Bush's recent Presidential visit to Africa invites deeper analysis. In this episode, Professor Dave Wiley (African Studies Center Director at Michigan State University) examines the militarization of US foreign policy in Africa and its potential implications. We also discuss why African Studies scholars (e.g. ACAS and ASA) and African Studies Centers rejected funding from US military and intelligence agencies.
Africa Past and Present is hosted by Michigan State University historians Peter Alegi and Peter Limb. It is produced by MATRIX - The Center for Humane Arts, Letters, and Social Sciences Online at MSU (http://www.matrix.msu.edu). Listen and subscribe to the fortnightly
