Randall Halle, “Germany and Eurafrica: From Colonial Territory to Developmental Partner in Foreign Policy and Film Pract

This lecture focuses on the institutionalization of Eurafrica as a functional part of European integration with the signing of the Treaty of Rome. And as signatory, Germany joined with France and Belgium in a post-war reassertion of the colonial project. The ensuing process of decolonization thus impacted Germany directly. It led to full participation in the European creation of strategic partnerships with the newly independent nations to the south of the Mediterranean.
