International Society for the Study of Africa (ISSA)
Aims and Objectives: ISSA is devoted exclusively to the production and dissemination of scholarship on Africa. It encourages continental and global debates on issues that are specifically relevant to Africa; it brings together streams of research analysis that are largely separated from each other; and it features current cultural expressions of Africans. ISSA also supports the development of research methodologies and theoretical frameworks that articulate and promote the understanding of African intellectual traditions and realities. To this end, we are sponsoring the publication of original research, monographs, and anthologies that seriously engage the historical and contemporary realities of Africa and the Diaspora.
