About the Book:
There are thirty African countries who are member of La Francophonie. African continent has the largest number of French speaking people totalling over 150 millions. This region also has around half a dozen exclusive Francophone regional organisations which have their own currency and institutions. India despite having a strong Indo-African relations, has little bilateral and multilateral interactions with most these Francophone countries and regional entities. Under globalisation these countries now enjoy greater openness in their international relations. The growing Indian economy and resource rich Francophone Africa have many economic complementarities which can be utilized for South -South cooperation. However, there is inadequate knowledge in India on Francophone Africa and on the operational dynamics of Francophone groups. This book is an outcome of a seminar at African Studies programme of School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University in collaboration with African Studies Association of India, New Delhi to address the above issues.
