Question Description
1. As nations in Africa gained independence from colonial powers, some made relatively smooth transitions to self-rule while others experienced violence and upheaval. In some nations, the violence continues even today. What might have been done to help those nations transition to self-rule peacefully? Write a short essay that sets forth ideas on ways that violence and civil war might have been prevented.
You might consider:
- Why Ghana’s transition to independence was peaceful
- Why French colonies tended to have more peaceful transitions than the colonies of other European powers
- Who lived in the colony at the time of independence; for example, ethnic groups, religious groups, European elites, and so forth.
