Abstract: TBA
Bio: Kondwani Happy Ngoma is due to complete his PhD in Economic History from the University of Gothenburg in 2024. His research interest and focus are on state and business relations. Kondwani´s research combines history and diplomacy to show how tools of statecraft are influenced by the interaction between states and firms. His postdoctoral project will study how Britain defined and sought to protect its strategic interests in South Africa. It will primarily examine how economic interests and tools of statecraft were conceived and applied geopolitically during apartheid.
