ISBN: 9780367020040 / Angielski / Twarda / 218 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. African armies have undergone significant changes since African nations won independence from colonial rule. Once mainly small constabulary forces relegated to the maintenance of internal order, these armies have become larger, more modern institutions, largely in response to growing external security threats. Previous analyses have focused on African military units as political actors, with little or no attention paid to their actual abilities and desires to perform defense functions. This study examines the evolution of African armed forces, their impact on the societies in which they...

An Anatomy of Ghanaian Politics: Managing Political Recession, 1969-1982: Managing Political Recession, 1969-1982

The author traces the dual patterns of diminution of the state and the adaptation of autonomous coping mechanisms in the...

Governing African Gold Mining: Private Governance and the Resource Curse
ISBN: 9781349850471 / Angielski / Miękka / 239 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book takes a fresh approach to the puzzle of sub-Saharan Africa's resource curse.

It shows how large mining firms with significant private authority in South Africa, Ghana and Tanzania are able to engender rules and regulations that are acknowledged by other actors, and in some cases even adopted by the state. In...
