Since 1950, there has been almost continuous military unrest in
Africa. This study offers an overview of warfare in this period,
examining a military tradition that ranges from the highly
sophisticated electronic, air and armour fighting between South
Africa and Angola-Cuban forces, to the spears and machetes of the
Rwandan genocide. The author explores two themes: first, that
warfare in North Africa has principally been a matter of identity
and secondly, that warfare south of the Sahara is comparable with
that of pre-colonial Africa - conflicts of frontiersmen trying to
extend their control over land and resources. Exploring liberation
campaigns, civil wars, ethnic conflicts and wars between nations,
this study provides an authoritative military history of Africa
over half a century.
