Talk:Basil Davidson

Degree?
Did Basil ever receive any sort of degree before he started to write on Africa, or before he started writing in general? I think it is important for this article to mention it. MattD

this article is very weak
No images, he isnt an English historian he is an English Historian who writes on Africal, thus the problem with words African Historian who isnt African (which is normal)--HalaTruth(ሐላቃህ) 16:18, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Is he still alive
He, according to this date is 93 years old.--HalaTruth(ሐላቃህ) 20:06, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Leftist
He is anticommunist, I really don't think he is left wing enough to worth mentioning his political views. It smacks of POVOneWorld22 06:27, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
 * His fierce anti-communism probably the reason, why tons of his stuff were published at the height of Stalinism in the GDR (Ulbricht-Deutschland)?--Radh (talk) 16:08, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
