Political re-mapping is the redefinition of African politics in world politics. The old paradigms and scholarship about Africa have failed to fully understand and advance Africa. Despite various struggles Africans have waged against imperialist forces, Africa has been participating in world economics and politics as a reactive agent. The author argues that without a structural change, the contemporary African state is not capable to lead Africa to the way of social progress. The only way out is the articulation and advancement of the realist pan-Africanism and the existing regional economic organizations must be democratized, decentralized and their actions must be guided by a trans-national ideology.
