This source talks extensively about the economies of Africa during the Era of Colonialism. It offers great insight on how colonial policies affected the long-term economies of African nations, and how policies changed over the time that they were under colonial rule. I think this is a great source for the Wikipedia Project.

This is another great source, and again, offers much insight on the economies of Africa during the colonial period. I think this article does a great job of being more specific with regard to its analysis, as it analyzes specific countries and how the rule affected them specifically. It is great because my other source focuses more on the big picture, the macroeconomic perspective, while this focuses more on the microeconomic perspective.

This is also a great source. It focuses heavily on British and French economic policies in Africa and how their economies changed over the years. It also offers great analysis on the different policies, and how the long term growth of the colonies has been affected. I think this offers a great view of Africa, as much of it was under colonial rule of the French and British, and will really offer a macro and micro view of economies when studying.
