Opis

This title was first published in 2002: This engaging account is the first in-depth research that deals with the recent phenomenon in conflicts in Africa where African states and African military intervene in conflicts either in neighbouring states or beyond. Breaking new ground in identifying the key issues, actors and actions, this text is a compelling resource for academics and practitioners alike.
