Description:Published in 1962; description from the book's back cover. The Arab countries in Africa--Egypt, Algeria, Libya, Tunisia, Morocco--often seem to have little connection with "black" Africa. But the true position is very different. The Arab countries--sometimes referred to as "white Africa"--have made strenuous efforts to influence Africa south of the Sahara, so that they too may play an important role in the new continent--Egypt especially. The author is a French and Arabic speaking journalist who has specialized in Arabian affairs. He shows how Arab nationalism, since it shifted its center from the Middle East to North Africa has been a major factor in shaping African neutralist politics. At the same time the message of Islam is proving a bond capable of uniting "black" Africans with "white". Behind, and in control of this new force, stand complex and interesting personalities like Nasser, Bourguiba, and Hassan II.Here is the first concise study of the interplay between "black" and "white" Africa--an interplay which will add a new dimension on to the future development of the African continent.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
