The latest issue of Africa Spectrum (Vol. 61, No. 1) is now available online. Since 2003, the journal has collaborated closely with VAD. We hope that this newsletter continues to strengthen this collaboration.
This issue marks the first one of the journal’s 60th anniversary. It brings together contributions that explore questions of identity, belonging, governance, and political transformation across diverse African contexts. The articles examine processes ranging from decolonial cultural revival and post-conflict peacebuilding to migration, foreign policy realignments, and digital peace initiatives. Collectively, they highlight how social actors negotiate authority, reclaim dignity, and reshape political and social relations in contexts marked by historical rupture and contemporary change.
