ASC Seminar: Society and change in Northern Ghana

Society and change in Northern Ghana: Dagomba, Gonja, and the regional perspective on Ghanaian history. The historiography of Ghana is marked by a dominant attention for specific regions and themes. The coastal history is one example, with its attention for contacts with the Europeans and the engagement in the Atlantic slave trade. The history of the Asante kingdom and issues of state formation is another. The history of the northern part of modern Ghana has received notably less attention. Please register
