Extending the view beyond political elites, it asks for the negotiated and plural character of socialism in these encounters and sheds light on migration, media, development, and solidarity through personal and institutional agency. With its distinctive focus on moorings and unmoorings, the volume shows how the encounters, albeit often brief, significantly influenced both African and East German histories.Africa in global history ;Volume 2.Navigating Socialist Encounters Cold WarInfluenceAfricaRelationsGermany (East)Germany (East)RelationsAfricaCold WarInfluence.327.43106Burton Eric1987-NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910493737103321Navigating Socialist Encounters2814557UNINA
