An essential resource for students or general readers interested in post-colonial Africa, this encyclopedia provides coverage of different regions, countries, wars, battles, factions, leaders, and foreign powers.
Armed conflict represents a substantial part of African history since around 1960, yet this history is either insufficiently taught or overshadowed by negative stereotypes about African "tribal warfare." This encyclopedia provides concise historical information on conflicts that occurred in post-colonial Africa. The entries cover all the regions of Africa (North, West, Central, East, and Southern); the Cold War and post-Cold War periods; a range of important leaders; various types of conflicts from civil wars and insurgencies to conventional military engagements; involvement of foreign powers; and such themes as airpower, women and war, and genocide.Languages:EnglishPublisher:ABC-ClioISBN-13:9781440869693ISBN-10:1440869693UPC:9781440869693Book Category:History, Political ScienceBook Subcategory:Africa, Wars & Conflicts, WorldBook Topic:AfricanSize:10.08 x 7.01 x 1.18 inchesWeight:1.9511Product ID:SCJE8WZ30G
