THE AUTHOR OFFERS EIGHTEEN WORKING PRINCIPLES FOR AN AFRICAN POLICY, GUIEDLINES DERIVED FROM AN ASSUMPTION THAT A COHERENT, RATIONAL POLICY WILL DEVELOP IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THE AUTHOR ARGUES FOR THE INCLUSION, BUT MUTING, OF MANY SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS WHO WISH TO DEFINE AMERICAN POLICY TOWARD AFRICA IN TERMS OF DOMESTIC SELF-INTEREST.

Hauptaspekte der Politik der USA gegenüber Afrika im Jahre 1985 waren der Konflikt über die südafrikanische Apartheidspolitik, die Rolle der Sowjetunion vor allem in Angola, die Aktivitäten Libyens (z.B. im Tschad) sowie die Sorge über die krisenhafte Entwicklung der afrikanischen Volkswirtschaften.

The membership of the African Studies Association now numbers 1,731— 734 fellows, 618 associates, and 379 student associates. Some 700 of these participated in the eleventh annual meeting of the Association. Although attendance was considerably below the 1,300 registered at the New York Hilton in 1967 and the nearly 1,000 who made their way to the University of Indiana in 1966, there is no indication that this reflects a declining interest in African studies in the United States. Rather, the A.S.A. custom of bringing its annual meetings in turn to scholars in the north-east, on the Pacific coast, and in the Middle West results in predictable fluctations in registration.
