Abstract: | The all-African People's Conference in Tunis (25/31-1, 1960) contented itself with expressing its support for 'a pan-African federation with a distinctive African personality which will be an independent organization'. The details of an all-African trade union would be thrashed out at the May 1960 meeting at Casablanca. The whole question of relations with foreign countries was one frequently raised during the conference. As one concrete outcome, the conference has a constitution as result of the Tunis meeting. Two of the seven declared aims and objects are 'to develop a feeling of one community among the peoples of Africa' and 'to work for the emergence of a United States of Africa'. |
