Aims & Scope

Créés en 1960, les Cahiers d’Études africaines publient des numéros composés d’articles inédits qui témoignent des tendances de pointe de la recherche, théorique et de terrain, et des discussions qu’elles suscitent. Tout en étant interdisciplinaire, la revue privilégie une approche anthropologique et historique, et traite de l’Afrique, des Antilles et des Amériques noires dans toutes leurs extensions. Les numéros thématiques annuels constituent autant d’ouvrages de référence sur une région, une question ou l’état d’une discipline. La publication d’articles en français et en anglais contribue à la reconnaissance internationale de la revue.
