外部干涉内政的危险几乎是所有非洲国家的共同主题。报纸和其他媒体上充斥着干预、颠覆、秘密阴谋、秘密补贴和正在策划或已结出硕果的神秘“交易”的报道。这种对外部干涉的专注在第三世界政治中很常见，可能反映了这些国家在世界舞台上感受到的政治和经济脆弱性。干预的形式很多，但并非所有的干预都被各国政府视为敌意。一般来说，带有贬义的术语“干预”或“颠覆”用来描述一个人所反对的活动。如果一个人喜欢这些活动，他们就被称为“支持”。军事、经济和政治干预可能都会以这种矛盾的方式看待。援助捐助者要求重新安排国内优先事项作为援助的条件，海外公司创建工业企业，在非洲领土上派驻外国技术人员，所有这些都造成了冲突的气氛，因为国家主权的一些基本要素似乎已被外部势力接管。有一套非洲机构尤其受到外部互动的影响，并支持非洲工会运动。非洲工会在现代非洲存在的许多机构的发展中发挥了重要作用，对许多非洲政治组织的稳定至关重要。因此，他们受到了各组织的大量审查和帮助，这些组织也对政治机构的地位和能力感兴趣。非洲工会往往与世界其他地区工会的刻板印象有很大不同。首先，他们
The danger of outside intervention in internal affairs is a theme common to virtually all African nations. Newspapers and other media are full of accounts of intervention, subversion, secret plots, covert subsidies and mysterious "deals" which are being plotted or which have been brought to fruition. This pre-occupation with external interference is common in Third World politics and probably reflects the political and economic vulnerability felt by these nations in the world arena. Intervention comes in many forms, not all of which are viewed as hostile by national governments. As a general rule, the pejorative term "intervention" or subversion is used to describe activities to which one is opposed. If one favors the activities, they are called "support." Military, economic and political intervention may all be seen in this ambivalent manner. The reordering of domestic priorities required by aid donors as qualifications for assistance, the creation of industrial enterprises by overseas corporations, the stationing of foreign technicians on African soil all create a climate of conflict because some basic elements of national sovereignty seem to have been taken over by an external power. One set of African institutions in particular has been subject to external interaction and support the African trade union movement. African trade unions have played an important role in the development of many institutions which exist in modern Africa and have been crucial to the stability of many African political organizations. As such, they have come in for a great deal of scrutiny and assistance from organizations which are also interested in the status and abilities of political institutions. African trade unions tend to be substantially different from the stereotypes of trade unions in other parts of the world. First of all, they
