This year marks the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of the first edition of the book that has most influenced the field that it helped to create: the economic history of West Africa. The session will start with a series of short oral contributions on A. G. (Tony) Hopkins’ classic, its content, influence on the study of West Africa; Sub-Saharan Africa and beyond; and the state of the field today. Tony will respond, and the discussion will then be opened to the floor.

Details of participants will be added later.
