Mellissa Mlambo explores traditional rulership in northern Nigeria and Mia Strand looks at the coloniality discourse in the relationship between South Africa and the UK’s former Department for International Development. Other articles focus on political party factionalism in Ghana, the transition to form a rebel organisation to a political party in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and NATO and the EU’s strategic approach to tackling piracy off the Somali coast. The issue also includes five book reviews, including a review of Rajiv Bhatia’s India-Africa Relations: Changing Horizons by Mandira Bagwandeen.
