The influence of the ethnicity in the constitution of the African States

Abstract

Investigating on the characteristics of a State Nation in Africa contemporary invites us to think a series of matters that transcend its private case. It puts in question notions as complex as culture, State, nation, way of production... To make problematic and to invigorate its approach turns out to be useful to analyze the operation of the companies precoloniales African, the changes in the conquest and the configuration of the state poscolonial, and of simple way the case of south Africa. Nevertheless there is something that crosses of cross way all the matter: the ethnicity.  If we explore in her we will discover that cannot remain outside, she marks the rhythms of fundamental aspects.
