Citizen and Subject: Contemporary Africa and the Legacy of Late Colonialism

by

In 'Citizen and Subject,' Mahmood Mamdani explores the political legacy of colonialism in Africa, focusing on the institutional and ideological frameworks that have persisted post-independence. Mamdani argues that colonial rule created a bifurcated state, characterized by a division between citizens and subjects, which continues to influence contemporary governance and social structures in Africa.
