Recenzii
Eurafrica is a very timely book on an important topic. While stressing continuity across the twentieth century and cataloguing Eurafrican projects in an accessible and useful manner, it shows that colonies played a much more important role in the thinking about European cooperation than is generally acknowledged.
[A] wide-ranging and carefully researched book ... The authors are to be commended for their extensive research.
A roseate glimmer of postwar peace attaches to 'Europe' - the fake continent and the organization of states that is said metonymically to stand for it. Hansen and Jonsson uncover something altogether different in the formation of the European project, something either unknown or papered over in embarrassed silence: Eurafrica. The colonial ideology, morphing into the neo-colonial here, is nothing less than astonishing.
[...] the work Eurafrica offers a very valuable contribution to the thorough knowledge and full understanding of the bond existing between decolonization and europeanisation processes. Based on a wide range of sources, it provides a general overview of the origins, motivations, forms and means of EC cooperation policies and illuminates the denseness of themes, controversies and approaches covered in research. In this way it advances knowledge about the debate on the "centrality of colonial legacy in early blueprints for European Integration" and provides a good fact finding of the state of the research in the field.
...it is recommended for institutions, researchers and interested persons interested in the nexus between pan-Europeanism and colonialism in the 20th century, and, some would add, beyond... The authors are to be commended for their extensive research and their untangling of the complex issues, tensions and fears that accompanied the evolving, positions put forward during negotiations that aimed to reconcile European union with colonial responsibilities. The bibliography is helpful and up to date... Finally, the text usefully includes a score of well-chosen black and white illustrations of Eurafrican hopes, taken from journal and book covers and contemporary political maps.
Peo Hansen and Stefan Jonsson's Eurafrica is a bold book ... one of the first to bring together the history of European colonialism and the history of European integration ... Scholars and students of European integration and of colonialism alike can eagerly look forward to the more detailed empirical work that the authors of the present volume are ideally placed to provide.

Descriere
'Eurafrica' was an intellectual endeavour and political project that from the 1920s saw Europe's future bound up with Europe's sucessful merger with Africa. In assessing this historical concept the authors shed light on the process of European integration, African decolonization and the current conflictual relationship between Europe and Africa.
