This comprehensive two‑volume work surveys the foreign policy, diplomacy, and statecraft of African polities from antiquity through the 21st century. Drawing on pre‑colonial histories, colonial encounters, and modern state formation, the book traces how Africa’s diverse political, social, cultural, and economic traditions have shaped its international relations — arguing that statehood and diplomacy in Africa long predate European influence. It offers a continent‑wide perspective designed to serve as a foundational reference for scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in the evolution of Africa’s global engagement
