African Studies in the Other Europe: A Legitimate Perspective on Africa
Original language description
African Studies in the countries that were under communist rule and that are today known as post-communist, have originally developed an interest in Africa based on ideological, political and economic interests of the state. In countries such as Poland, Czech Republic and Hungary African studies currently experience considerable growth. The article describes changing emphases of eastern European Africanist scholarship and discusses the question of legitimacy of the marginal but non-colonial approach to African studies. In contradistinction to the Western European African studies and with Eastern European approaches it shows that the latter perspective is useful for a critical look at the hitherto dominant paternalistic style of African studies in Europe.
