The work also examines the creation of the Commission for Pan-African Affairs, a government created institution to helped to promote the cause of Pan-Africanism. Worrell looks at the objectives, activities, rhetoric, weaknesses, important ideologues, what caused the demise of the various groupings and the lessons to be learnt.
