This book provides a wide-ranging look at how such encounters have continued into the present day, identifying the disruptions and continuities in religion, language, economics, and various other social phenomena that have resulted. These accounts show a region that, while still grappling with the legacies of colonialism and the slave trade, is both shaped by and an important actor within ever-denser global networks, exhibiting consistent transformation and creative adaptation. 410 0$aIntegration and conflict studies ;$vv. 12. 606 $aGlobalization$xPolitical aspects$zGuinea (Region) 607 $aGuinea (Region)$xPolitics and government 607 $aGuinea (Region)$xSocial conditions 615 0$aGlobalization$xPolitical aspects 676 $a966.5 702 $aKno?rr$b Jacqueline$f1960- 702 $aKohl$b Christoph 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910169655603321 996 $aThe Upper Guinea coast in global perspective$92289970 997 $aUNINA
