This book Trends in African Studies is a response to the challenge of the paucity of materials on the history and the development of African Studies in a global context. The available substantive materials on the subject are limited, thus creating a gap in related literature. Yet, the field of African Studies continues to generate global interest, academic recognition and respectability. This book documents the current state of African Studies and emerging trends in the field. It covers the development of African Studies in a global context: African Studies in Africa, Asia and the Middle East, Europe, Australia, the United States of America and Canada, South America and the Caribbean, and it analyses the trends present in each continent. An important contribution of this book to the field of African Studies is the development of an African Studies index designed for measuring the quality of African Studies and ranking. Useful information, suggested multidisciplinary research methods in African Studies and an appendix which includes a researched list of African Studies journals and organisations related to African Studies are found within its pages.
