Journal of African History

The Journal of African History publishes articles and book reviews ranging widely over the African past, from the late Stone Age to the 1970s. In recent years increasing prominence has been given to economic, cultural and social history and several articles have explored themes which are also of growing interest to historians of other regions such as: gender roles, demography, health and hygiene, propaganda, legal ideology, labour histories, nationalism and resistance, environmental history, the construction of ethnicity, ideas of time, and photographs as historical sources. Contributions dealing with pre-colonial history are especially welcome. Articles on slavery, the slave trade and the interpretation of oral tradition are also included.
