Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses one main question: whether the United States has a cohesive foreign policy for Africa. In assessing the history of the United States and its interactions with the continent, particularly with the Horn of Africa, the author casts doubt on whether successive US administrations had a cohesive foreign policy for Africa. The volume examines the historical interactions between the US and the continent, evaluates the US involvement in Africa through foreign policy lenses, and compares foreign policy preferences and strategies of other European, EU and BRIC countries towards Africa. Stephen M. Magu is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Hampton University, USA, where he teaches history, international relations and political science courses.
