A very warm welcome from the Routledge, Taylor & Francis African Studies team!
We hope you're enjoying the ASA 2020 Annual Meeting. We're excited to take this opportunity to connect with you, albeit virtually. Although we can’t be there in person, we welcome the space to make new connections, catch up with our publishing partners, and discover the key topics and issues you’re currently working on.
Since you’ve stopped by, we’d invite you to explore some of the resources we publish in African Studies. And don’t forget, if you’re a researcher based in Africa, please do make use of our Special Terms for Researchers and Authors (STAR) program for free access to articles from Taylor & Francis journals.
Do connect with us if you’d like to discuss your article or book proposal, or if you have any questions about our portfolio. We look forward to hearing from you!
