African Interventions: State Militaries, Foreign Powers, and Rebel Forces

Autor Emizet F. Kisangani, Jeffrey Pickering
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 noi 2021
Foreign military intervention has had a profound impact on post-colonial African history and politics. Interventions have destabilized borderlands, overthrown governments, and taken a devastating toll on populations. Emizet F. Kisangani and Jeffrey Pickering advance a new theoretical framework and combine quantitative, qualitative, and historical methods to shed fresh light on these important but understudied events. Their detailed analysis brings understanding to supportive and hostile interventions and to interventions by former colonial states, non-colonial foreign actors, and African countries. Kisangani and Pickering also analyse military incursions into ungoverned territories and lands engulfed in civil war. Showcasing a variety of examples from the Second Congo War to the Ethiopian-Eritrean conflict, the book offers a rich and accessible examination of military intervention on the continent.

Recenzii

'Kisangani and Pickering have produced the most systematic and comprehensive analysis of inter-state intervention in Africa to date. Their tripartite methodological approach is sophisticated and persuasive. They demonstrate convincingly that foreign policy role conceptions, transnational rebels, and domestic political diversions account for nearly all unilateral interventions in African states.' John F. Clark, Florida International University
'African Interventions is a path breaking work of scholarship. Its assessment of intervention in Africa is authoritative. Analysis of colonial, non-colonial and intra-African intervention produces results that substantially move forward our knowledge. The book is essential reading for both specialists and readers with a more general interest in world politics.' Patrick James, University of Southern California
