Description
This is the first book in English dealing with the vast area of French Equatorial Africa, out of which have now been created the four autonomous republics, of Gabon, Tchad, Central Africa, and the Congo. The authors' emphasis is primarily on the current problems and recent history of the four new republics.
Not the least of these problems is the political ferment in the surrounding territories. The two northern republics, Tchad and Central African Republic, are adjacent to the Arab League countries of Sudan and Libya. Along the western flanks of Tchad, Gabon, and the Central African Republic are the former trust territory of Cameroun, now in a state of unrest; the republic of Niger, which may unite with the Ivory Coast and Volta republics; and Nigeria. In the south, the Congo Republic will inevitably be deeply affected by the profound changes taking place in the Belgian Congo.
In Part I the authors examine the former federation of states and analyze its administrative practices, civil and judicial institutions, political organizations, rural economy, industry and labor, communications, and welfare. Part II studies the political and economic development of the territories and the emergence of the four republics.
Uncertainty surrounds the future of all these new republics. The principal question is in regard to the shape that their former unity will take, should it survive. The present leaders of the four republics have refused to re-create a strong federal executive, but they have agreed to maintain a loose form of economic and technical cooperation, as well as some of the established cultural and judicial institutions. It remains to be seen whether this trend to cooperation will be strong enough to counteract the older, centrifugal forces of disunity.

Virginia Thompson and Richard Adloff are the authors of French West Africa (Stanford, 1958), and several other books.
