Kwame Nkrumah and the Pan-African Ideal draws on experiences in
various decades on the ebbs and flows of African continental integration
as a common African continental agenda. It attempts to contribute
towards the grasp of critical theoretical position on international
political economy and its application on the African socio-political,
economic and ideological condition. This work critically engages with
the works of Nkrumah, a leading African scholar on the African
continental political unity in the political, economic and ideological
fields of the struggle to achieve the continental socio-political,
economic and ideological transformation in the strategic interests of
Africa in its continental and international relations. As a means of
demonstrating invaluable knowledge produced by Nkrumah for a critical
engagement in the efforts to achieve African continental integration and
transformation, this work provides a critical analysis of his position
on the African continental integration and how the decisive majority of
heads of state and government from the Organisation of African Unity to
the African Union (AU) have waged the struggle against it.
