---------- I assume you are talking about inter-state relations in the region. One interesting area that shouldn't be overlooked is that of language planning. There were for instance a number of conferences beginning in the 1960s (several facilitated by UNESCO) on various aspects of African language use, from harmonization of orthographies for languages that cross the borders to discussions of educational strategies etc. See http://www.bisharat.net/Documents/ for a partial list and some documents (I'm still seeking copies of documents listed but with no links).
