Abstract

Abstract : This paper seeks to examine and evaluate the prospects for sub-Sahara Africa. It focuses on four inextricably linked topics, the context of the region, that is, those factors in the background of the region that must be kept in mind when dealing with it, the significance of the region to the United States. US interests in the region and the current US policy toward it. The paper culminates in recommendations for future US policy toward sub-Saharan Africa. This paper will assert that future prospects for sub-Saharan Africa vis-a-vis the region today range from decidedly bleak to guardedly optimistic across a wide range of significant issues. Relative to the rest of the world, however, the region is almost certain to fall even farther behind Africa's relative decline, combined with a dearth of vital or significant national interests, argues strongly against a major change in the US policy which places sub-Saharan Africa at the bottom of our worldwide regional priorities.
