DESCRIPTION:The African Studies Centre has been a privileged institutional
  form in Britain for knowledge production on Africa since the end of colon

 cated in the colonial research institutes established in Africa\, in parti
 cular the Rhodes-Livingstone Institute and the East African Institute of S

 uthoritative by these institutes as well as to the institutions and struct
 ures underpinning that knowledge production can raise important questions 
 about today’s centres that need to beaddressed as part of a decolonizati
 on agenda.
