The book gives useful insights into the politics, sociology and economic change in developing countries and it is particularly valuable for individuals and institutions interested in Africa. -- TSC.

The book is easy to read. Its argument for a positive treatment of ethnicity is a contribution to the political sociology of Africa. The author gives ethnicity a dimension that has for too long been missing in African studies. -- Dan-Bright Dzorgbo. More about the book

Ethnicity and nationalism in Africa  -- Book

 

Review From Booknews  
Hameso seeks an alternative to the western style state nations that were imposed in Africa during colonialism and are currently being pushed heavily by the west while the real world is increasingly dominated by undemocratic transnational corporations. He describes the failure of territory-based mirrors of Europe in Zaire, Kenya, Somalia and other countries, and proposes the multitude of existing ethnic nations as the basis for stable society. Some of the material is repeated from his earlier book. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
