Africa Notes (July 1, 1982), I Wrote: Number 106 December 28, 1989 0\ A publication of the Center for Strategic and International Studies, Washington, D.C. Who's Who, and Where A Guide to Key Personnel in U.S.-African Relations In the first issue of CSIS Africa Notes (July 1, 1982), I wrote: "With the publication of CSIS Africa Notes, a new dimension is added to the Center's African Studies Program. Not all articles we publish will be as irreverent as this issue's tour of five countries of East Africa [Jerry Funk's 'Some Observations on Strategic Realities and Ideological Red Herrings on the Horn of Africa'], but all will be concerned in one way or another with destereotyping. The problem with boxing and labeling African leaders and states as 'good guys' and 'bad guys' is that boxes and labels devised in either Moscow or Washington tend to disintegrate in the African sun. Thus, we will be looking through a variety of prisms at African political configurations, personalities, conflicts, economic pressures, external relationships, . .. and policy options for the United States." In the seven and a half years since the 1982launching, we have produced 106 issues on a wide range of policy-relevant topics (see list on page 7) . Our subscribers in the United States and in over 30 other countries fall generally into the categories whose special needs we sought to serve from the outset­ " decision makers, analysts, and trailblazers with Africa-related responsibilities in governments, corporations, the media, research institutions, universities, and other arenas." One of the most popular issues published from time to time has been our "Who's Who, and Where" guide to key personalities in official U.S.-African relations. Our 1989 update, originally scheduled for publication in June, was delayed by the slow pace of Bush administration appointments to senior positions in executive branch departments and agencies, as well as the diplomatic corps. The timing of congressional recesses in relation to required Senate confirmation of some appointees has also complicated the "transition" process. As readers will note, several key slots are still being filled by "acting" officials.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Red Star State: State-Capitalism, Socialism, and Black Internationalism in Ghana, 1957-1966 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in History by Kwadwo Osei-Opare © Copyright by Kwadwo Osei-Opare The Red Star State: State-Capitalism, Socialism, and Black Internationalism in Ghana, 1957-1966 by Kwadwo Osei-Opare Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Andrew Apter, Chair The Red Star State charts a new history of global capitalism and socialism in relation to Ghana and Ghana’s first postcolonial leader, Kwame Nkrumah. By tracing how Soviet connections shaped Ghana’s post-colonial economic ideologies, its Pan-African program, and its modalities of citizenship, this dissertation contradicts literature that portrays African leaders as misguided political-economic theorists, ideologically inconsistent, or ignorant Marxist-Leninists. Rather, I argue that Nkrumah and Ghana’s postcolonial government actively formed new political economic ideologies by drawing from Lenin’s state-capitalist framework and the Soviet Economic Policy (NEP) to reconcile capitalist policies under a decolonial socialist umbrella. Moreover, I investigate how ordinary Africans—the working poor, party members, local and cabinet-level government officials, economic planners, and the informal sector—grappled with ii and reshaped the state’s role and duty to its citizens, conceptions of race, Ghana’s place within the Cold War, state-capitalism, and the functions of state-corporations. Consequently, The Red Star State attends both to the intricacies of local politics while tracing how global ideas and conceptions of socialism, citizenship, governmentality, capitalism, and decolonization impacted the first independent sub-Saharan African state.

    AFRIC AN COASTAL ELITE ARCHITECTURE: CULTURAL AUTHENTIFICATION DURING THE COLONIAL PERIOD IN ANOMABO, GHANA By COURTNAY MICOTS A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2010 1 © 2010 Courtnay Micots 2 To the gracious people of Anomabo – the leaders, families and individuals without whom this work would not have been poss ib le History books begin and end, but the events they describe do not. —R. G. Collingwood 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Ghanaians are a welcoming people. It was my good luck on my first trip to Ghana in the summer of 2007 to meet Adwoa Grace Kyeremeh, member of the royal family and dairy farmer, who welcomed me and made me feel at home in Anomabo. This study of Anomabo's rock residences results from the collective efforts of many people, including Grace, to whom I owe gratitude. Contacts made in the summer of 2007 with local leaders and individuals such as Nana Kwa Nyanfoeku Akwa (Nana Kwa), the town historian, revealed the potential for dissertation study of the visual culture. I returned in the summer of 2008 to further my pre-dissertation research with scholars at the University of Ghana in Legon, the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science & Technology in Kumasi (KNUST), and the University of Cape Coast as well as several of the leaders and townspeople of Anomabo. I stayed in Ghana for six mo nths in 2009 to complete my dissertation fieldwork. To prepare for my interviews, I studied the Akan culture and Twi language at the University of Florida.
