Compare and contrast the impact of colonialism on cultural values in two African countries.

Candidates will give an account of the similarities and differences between the impact of colonialism on cultural values in two African states, referring to both throughout. There does not need to be an equal number of each. Consequences may extend beyond the timeframe, but must be clearly linked to the issue raised in the question. Candidates may refer to the influence on traditional art, music, crafts and literature. Traditional gender relationships and ethnic relations may be discussed, together with the influence of religion and other spiritual practices, as well as family relations including marriage/divorce, size of families and multi-generational living. Lifestyle changes, including dress and the use of media and modern communications, may also be considered. Candidates’ opinions or conclusions will be presented clearly and supported by appropriate evidence.
