Beyond Humanitarianism

From Mugabes Zimbabwe to conflict in the Horn, Africa has moved off the back burner of U.S. foreign policy. In 2006 the Council on Foreign Relations published a Task Force report that, according to the U.S. Department of State, raised the profile of Africa among policymakers. Now the Council and Foreign Affairs, its signature journal, bring us Beyond Humanitarianism, a citizens guide to deconstructing the complex issues and conflicts on the African continent and clarifying whats at stake for the United States in Africas future.
