To Julien:  Kwame Nkrumah is a highly under valued Marxist thinker who led
the Ghanese socialist revolution in 1957... the definition of his I made
reference to was his invaluable work:  "Neo-colonialism: The last stage of
Imperialism", a sort of addition and build on to Lenins original
"Imperialism..." by taking the economic relations of African "free sates" to
their former colonial master states and the other Imperialist countries. If
memory serves right, it was written after the revolution (It seems logical,
given Ghana was the first to liberate itself on the African continent).

I have tried hard to find decent sources on Kwame and his thought on the
internet, and found it lacking. Check your local library, they probably have
him on the bulk shelves. Final note: His other key concept was a sort of
Bolivarism for Africa; to Kwame, so long as Imperialism has even a toe hold
on the continent, no independance can truly be safe for long. Given he was
overthrown in a CIA orchestration, it seems to hold true. This concept is
his work: "Africa Must Unite".
