ISS Debate: How will the outcome of the upcoming US election affect Africa?
Share your views on the US elections and the potential affects on Africa
The eyes of the world are currently focused
on the US presidential race that will be decided next week (6 November 2012). The stakes are
high, and the outcome of the election will have global implications. Indeed,
the US election might matter more for Africa than many people appreciate.
The ISS is interested in your views on
this important election and what it might mean for Africa.
- Will the US continue
to frame its foreign policy towards Africa through a counter-terrorism lens, as
has been the case in recent months?
- Or will we see a
continuation of the Bush-era growth in development aid, health care support
etc?
Much will depend on who takes control
of the White House in January next year. To share your thoughts use the `Disqus` forum below
