The writings and practice of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah, Ghana's first post-independence prime minister and president, were key in laying out a vision for post-independence Africa. Now, in an effort to counter the deluge of neo-liberal thinking that has engulfed so much of the debate on African development in recent decades, Michael Williams illuminates just how important a role an Nkrumaist intellectual framework can play in providing an accurate diagnosis of, and effective solution to, Africa's development crisis. This is done by examining Nkrumah's vision of the critical role Pan-Africanism must play in the development of the continent.
Raising vitally important questions about Africa's development and the quality of life of its populations, this book will be a key text for researchers of African politics, development studies, and the Pan-African movement.
Reviews / Votes
"Michael Williams has dedicated a great part of his life studying and bringing to life the Nkrumaist view on Pan-Africanism. In this book, he reawakens a powerful ideology: Pan-Africanism, spearheaded by Kwame Nkrumah, who remains one of the Africa's most prolific contributors towards advocating for the unification of the continent. Divided into five chapters, this book coherently gives an account of the evolution and progress of this movement to date and concludes by providing some important guidelines through which this seemingly far-fetched dream could be realized as envisaged by Nkrumah himself. [...] Amidst the myriad problems plaguing the continent, The Pan-African Imperative is a timely reminder and clarion call for Africans to unite themselves in all fronts to secure a better future."
