Summary:

Africa in Europe, in two volumes, meticulously documents Europe's presence in Africa from antiquity to the present. The work incorporates findings from areas of study as diverse as physical anthropology, linguistics, social history, social theory, international relations, migrational studies, and globalization. In contrast to most other works focusing on Eurafrican relationships, which largely revolve around Atlantic and trans-Atlantic developments since the Age of Global Exploration, this work has a much broader perspective that takes into account human evolution, the history of religion, Judaic studies, Byzantine studies, the history of Islam, and Western intellectual history, including social theory.

Contents:

v. 1. Antiquity into the age of global expansion

v. 2. Interdependencies, relocations, and globalization.

Notes:

Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
