Chapter 1: On writing Africa’s economic history -- Chapter 2: Research on Africa’s history and development – a review -- Chapter 3: Back in history, 1000-1850 -- Chapter 4: Economic and political integration, 1850-1920 -- Chapter 5: Transformation and administration, 1920-1950 -- Chapter 6: Expansion and crisis of the gate-keeping state, 1950-1985 -- Chapter 7: Period of deregulation, 1985-2005 -- Chapter 8: Growth and global integration, 2005-.

‘This is a desperately needed book. It not only surveys the field of African economic history at the level of undergraduate students, but provides several fresh perspectives, drawing on insights from the latest research on the evolution of African societies and their economic prosperity. This valuable source of teaching material will be the premier text on African economic history for at least the next decade.’ —Johan Fourie, Stellenbosch University, South Africa This upper level textbook offers a historical understanding of sub-Saharan Africa. By looking at the economic history of the African region from before the arrival of European territorial control all the way through to Africa’s integration in the current era of globalisation, readers can understand the development paths for African countries today. Organisation of production, social structures, trade, and governance are key factors in the discussion about African success stories and failures. Suitable reading for upper level undergraduates, MSc and postgraduate students, in addition to policy makers and development practitioners looking for a comprehensive overview of Africa from an economic and social perspective. Hillbom and Green also provide a starting point for the study of African economic history for those who would like to continue their own research in this area.
