Description
Globalisation and African Security: History, Challenges and Prospects is a critical analysis of globalisation and its positive and negative impacts on African states. The world has been characterized by gradual but dramatic sea changes in the second half of the twentieth century. These have continued at a jet speed in the new millennium. These changes were further accelerated by the sudden collapse of the former Union of Soviet Socialists Republic (USSR) as a superpower, thereby bringing the cold war to an abrupt end. The demise of the soviet union has automatically created a unipolar world in which the United States of America (USA) has emerged as the undisputed sole power, with hegemonic influence and power pervading the entire world.
