Building the Ghanaian Nation-State

Kwame Nkrumah's Symbolic Nationalism

Beschreibung

Ghana has always held a position of primacy in the African political and historical imagination, due in no small part to the indelible impression left president Kwame Nkrumah. This study examines the symbolic strategies he used to construct the Ghanaian state through currency, stamps, museums, flags, and other public icons.
