Act 2: The music room of Dr. Bartolo'i house: late afternoon
by Tom Soper Sub-Warden of Queen Elizabeth House. Oxford
Africa is in the melting-pot ... we can have no certainty that the projection of European political divisions into Africa will continue-no certainty that trade will follow flags now hauled down; yet economic relations between new African countries and the older countries of Europe are of vital importance to both. In view of this, it seems curious that in the current British discussions about the Common Market, so little attention has been paid to the position in Africa.
In this talk Tom Soper, who has been on the secretariat of Government Commissions in both East and Central Africa, explores some of the facts and arguments.
