Una imagen instantánea de Ghana en 2022, como ejemplo de las repúblicas africanas actuales, nos muestra la singularidad de su recorrido, dificultades para la consolidación del Estado-nación y la soberanía conseguida hace décadas, además de algunos elementos complejos cuya comprensión puede ser modificada si cambiamos parcialmente la perspectiva, incorporamos la dimensión imperial e inscribimos el proceso de las independencias políticas formales en una mirada de larga duración. Eso implica pensar la historia de los modos de producción de otra manera y destacar los elementos de continuidad neocolonial. Este enfoque quizás ayude a entender los trazos de la narrativa común de los líderes independentistas que insiste en la africanidad y los valores propiamente africanos como forma de resistencia cultural y fundamento del futuro que estaban ayudando a construir.
