Summary: Both on the continent and off, ?Africa? is spoken of in terms of crisis: as a place of failure and seemingly insurmountable problems, as a moral challenge to the international community. What, though, is really at stake in discussions about Africa, its problems, and its place in the world? And what should be the response of those scholars who have sought to understand not the ?Africa? portrayed in broad strokes in journalistic accounts and policy papers but rather specific places and social realities within Africa?
