South African human rights activist and academic, Salim Vally, discusses the Israel-Palestine conflict, asserting that it originates from 75 years of Israeli settler colonialism and ethnic cleansing. He calls for African support for Palestine against Israel's military-industrial complex, backed by Western imperialism. Vally also criticizes the shifting positions of African countries on the conflict and explores the parallels between the Israeli regime and South African Apartheid.

The Review of African Political Economy is delighted to announce that from 2024 all our work will be available on a single platform with no paywalls. There will be equal access for all researchers, activists, and readers, wherever they are based in the world, and for the foreseeable future. We passionately believe that the future for radical publications like ROAPE is genuine open access with no paywalls, or any barriers to access controlled by corporations and giant publishing houses.
ROAPE speaks to Nigerian socialist and activist, Alex Batubo, about the elections this month, and the political and economic situation in the country. Batubo focuses on the struggle of labour, and the possibilities of a radical alternative emerging from the challenges (and opportunities) of the present.
