| Abstract: | In the words of George Padmore, 'Pan-Africanism offers an ideological alternative to Communism on the one hand, and Tribalism on the other. It rejects both white racialism and black chauvinism; It stands for racial co-existence on the basis of absolute equality and respect for human personality'. This high ideal os analysed here by defining its essential elements as they emerged at Accra in 1958; by looking back into history to see how the idea has evolved since its birth in the year 1900; by surveying the obstacles which hamper the realization of the ideal; by discussing some of the new regional combinations in the Pan-African spirit; and finally, by pointing out the relationship between Pan-Africanism and the concepts of nigritude, 'black power' abd 'blackism'. |
