Dear colleagues,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Laura Foster and Tolu Odumosu’s call for papers
yesterday reminded me that I wanted to reach out asking if
there’s a site anywhere that pools syllabi relating to
STS-Africa (including history) on various themes. I’m also
interested in review articles that set new research priorities
for the field.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Along these lines, I thought I’d share a piece I
wrote last summer and that went live in November on “The History
and Historiography of Science” for
<i>Oxford’s Encyclopedia of African History</i>. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’ll add that when I was invited to prepare this,
other authors, including Clapperton Mavhunga, had been solicited
to write their own review essays on technology (and medicine) so
while I touch on some technological (and medical) themes, I left
a lot of this literature to one side (including citations
because I assumed these authors would cite their own work).
That’s the peril of disciplinary sub-divisions :-)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But caveats aside, here’s the link to the online
version and a pdf of the piece is attached below.</div>
<div><br>

<div><a href="http://oxfordre.com/africanhistory/view/10.1093/acrefore/9780190277734.001.0001/acrefore-9780190277734-e-353" target="_blank">http://oxfordre.com/africanhistory/view/10.1093/acrefore/9780190277734.001.0001/acrefore-9780190277734-e-353</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’m sure many on this list have written terrific
review essays and it might benefit us all to pool this
information somewhere for ourselves and our students. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All best wishes for the New Year!</div>
