The first democratic elections were held in South Africa in 1994, thus
ending an era of white domination.  The country of South Africa and
its neighbors - Mozambique, Namibia, Angola, and Zimbabwe - are still
grappling with the economic and social scars from the colonial past,
although there is also some optimism.  This course will look at the
history of the region over the past three centuries with emphasis on
the economic and social history of African societies, their relations
with each other, resistance and accommodation to white rule,
industrialization, urbanization, and the struggle for liberation.
Readings will include perspectives from various viewpoints, and of
individuals such as Nelson Mandela.  There will be three exams and a
term paper.
