The geographic diversity of the people and places of the African continent is examined in terms of its physical resources and its social, cultural, economic and political systems. Emphasis is on Africa's role in global events and on the challenges of social justice and sustainable development. Lectures and class discussions employ case studies to reflect the breadth of the continent's geography, while student writing promotes deeper research into the geography of specific places. Offered fall semester.
